WET SOCKS TREATMENT

SUPPORTING IMMUNE RESILIENCE IN STRESSFUL TIMES

The Wet Socks Treatment is a powerful traditional remedy used to support wellness during times of illness. It begins with putting cold socks on your feet just before bed, covering them with a second pair of socks, and hopping right into bed for a restful night of sleep.

By applying wet, cold socks to your feet just before bedtime, you are encouraging circulation which can simultaneously boost your immune system: the combination of increasing circulation at bedtime, when our physiology would otherwise be slowing down, and our body’s natural upregulation of adaptive immune function during sleep promotes the spread of active, sensitized immune cells throughout your body. I know wet cold socks before bed sounds terrible! But the socks should be damp, not soaking, and your body’s natural heat will warm the socks up quickly. The cold damp socks are a temporary requirement to boost your body’s circulation.
