The wet sock treatment is best if repeated for three nights in a row, or as instructed by your physician.<span>&nbsp; &nbsp; </span>In short: this is a way to “boost immunity.”</span></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:12pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><b><i><span style="font-size:11pt;">Indications:</span></i></b></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">Sore throat or any inflammation or infection of the throat, neck pain, ear infections, headaches, migraines, nasal congestion, upper respiratory infections, coughs bronchitis, and sinus infections, chronic ailments with repeated infections.<span>&nbsp;

</span>The feet warm-up the cold water in the cotton socks, which evaporates away even faster via “wicking action” of the wool socks.<span>&nbsp; </span>Evaporation has a cooling effect to the socks in return.<span>&nbsp; </span>While the socks are warm, vessels in the feet constrict and blood is shunted away.<span>&nbsp; </span>When the socks have cooled, blood is again sent down to the feet.<span>&nbsp; </span>In summary, the effect is a reflexive and cyclical pumping of blood to and from the feet.<span>&nbsp; </span>The result is increased core temperature (fever is our friend!), increased immune cell activity, and decreased congestion in the head and trunk. </p></td></tr></tbody></table><p style="text-align:justify;"><b><i><span style="font-size:11pt;">&nbsp;</span></i></b></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><b><i><span style="font-size:11pt;">Directions:</span></i></b></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>Warm your feet first.<span>&nbsp; </span>This is very important as the treatment will not be as effective and could be harmful if your feet are not warmed first.<span>&nbsp; </span>Warming can be accomplished by soaking your feet in warm water for at least 5-10 minutes or taking a warm bath.<span>&nbsp; </span>You can add ginger to the warm bath to increase the heating response.<span>&nbsp; </span>Warmer is better.<span>&nbsp; </span>If you take a bath, be careful to keep your hair dry.<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>Take a pair of cotton socks and wet them with ice water.<span>&nbsp; </span>Be sure to wring the socks out thoroughly so they do not drip.<span>&nbsp; </span>You can plan ahead and put them in the freezer while you prepare the bath.<span>&nbsp; </span>Or, keep them in ice water until you’re ready, and wring them out before putting them on.<span>&nbsp; </span>Either way, you want ice-cold, damp cotton socks. </span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>Dry off your feet and body with a dry towel.<span>&nbsp; </span>Stay in a warm room and avoid getting chilled.<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>Put on the socks:<span>&nbsp; </span>Place cold wet socks on feet.<span>&nbsp; </span>Cover the wet cotton socks with dry wool socks.<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>Go directly to bed, wearing warm pajamas and covering with an extra blanket.<span>&nbsp; </span>Avoid getting chilled.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>Keep the socks on overnight.<span>&nbsp; </span>You should find that the wet cotton socks will be dry in the morning.<span>&nbsp; </span>If you wake up in the middle of the night<span>&nbsp; </span>and they’re dry, you can take them off.<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>If you break a sweat, good!<span>&nbsp; </span>But you don’t want to start shivering.<span>&nbsp; </span>So, if you wake up drenched in sweat, change out any wet undergarments with dry cotton ones so you can fall asleep again comfortably.<span>&nbsp; </span>You may repeat the procedure again, even in the middle of the night.<span>&nbsp; </span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><span>●</span>It is actually best to keep the bedroom window cracked open while you sleep. Outdoor air is almost always fresher than indoor air.<span>&nbsp; </span>But, it is <i>not </i>recommended that it blow on on your face.</span></p><p></p></div>
