METHODS FOR TREATING ACNE CHICO, CA 916SKIN - ACNE & WELLNESS CLINIC
WARMING SOCKS: an alternative, yet effective method that increases circulation and stimulates the lymphatic system to help speed recovery from minor illnesses such as colds, flus, soar throats, sinusitis, insomnia and stress-based acne.
WARMING SOCKS PROCEDURE: Get yourself ready for bed and take care of your bedtime rituals. You will need a pair of fitted cotton socks and a pair of thick wool-like socks. Use scissors to cut off the tops of the cotton socks, so that the top portion of your feet are exposed (see picture). Using cold water, wet the cotton socks and gently wring them out (socks should be heavy, damp and cold).
1) Warm your body, especially your legs and feet by soaking or showering for 5 to 10 minutes. This step is important for the treatment to be effective.
2) Dry off, keep your body warm and put on the cold damp cotton socks.
3) Slide the warm thick wool socks on over the damp socks.
4) Keep your body warm and go straight to bed. Make sure you have enough blankets before starting the treatment.
Your socks will be dry long before you awake. If your body gets over heated during the night, you can remove the socks. A cup of hot ginger tea before bed will also help warm your body. Avoid herbal teas with a cooling effect such as mint teas.
MANAGING ACNE REQUIRES A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH, INCLUDING ROUTINE TREATMENT, A PERSONALIZED SKINCARE SYSTEM AND LIFESTYLE CHOICES THAT PROMOTE OPTIMAL WELLNESS. PLEASE CALL THE CLINIC TO SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION & EVALUATION: (530) 680.2027
