At 21 years of age my mother followed an invitation to stay with her aunt in New York City. In those days people dressed up. The shoes matched the purse that matched the gloves that matched the hat. Here she acquired a love for beautiful shoes. For decades my mom sashayed gracefully across cobble stone streets in shoes that were just a tad too small, by no means agronomical – but oh, so beautiful and delicate.Now after two hip replacements and 2 foot surgeries, her snazzy high heels gave way to sensible foot wear.
Your feet do not only take you where you want to go,
they naturally adjust to the surface you walk on – all without needing the brain’s input.
Feet are the foundation of our body. Most problems we have with misalignment originates with an issue with our feet. Other body parts start compensating and losing proper alignment. It is not surprising that a creaky hip or a stiff neck can be traced to an issue with our feet.
Proper care for our feet is so important. Maybe the reason we ignore them is that they are the farthest distance from our brain?
PLANTAR FACIITIS is caused by the overstretched or twisted band of facia that connects the heel of your foot with the toes. The symptom is a sharp pain at the arch of the foot. If unattended, a bone spur can develop. This problem can easily be remedied by using the proper essential oils found in our BONE THERAPY for PLANTAR FACIITIS& NERVE PAIN. The treatment is a cooling, anti-inflammatory, pain relieving gel used for pain in the arch of the foot and promotes the strengthening of healthy bone-facia connection to prevent building of a bone spur.
DRY AND CRACKED HEELS are not only painful, they can also lead to a shift in balance, causing stress on other parts of our body. Discomfort leads to misalignment.ULTRA OMEGA THERAPY cream is very helpful for dry, cracked skin that just won’t heal. Massage your feet with the ULTRA OMEGA THERAPY to soften and condition your skin and help to heal dry and cracked skin on your feet. We use Shea Butter in our base to soften dry skin, repair cracks, lock in moisture and give your skin the protection from the elements. Essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated fats (EFAs – Omega 3, 6 and 9), that are the building blocks of healthy cell membranes and help produce the skin’s natural oil barrier. A soothing blend of pure essential oils stimulate quick repair and healing.
TOE NAIL FUNGUS develops when moisture is trapped under the nail for an extended period of time. Polished nails create a perfect breeding ground for nail fungus. Remove your nail polish and let those toes breathe. Treat them with an anti-fungal treatment twice a day. HEAL ME BLEND is an extremely anti-viral/anti-fungal blend helps to overcome severe skin conditions.
ARTHRITIS IN YOUR FEET
causes pain from inflammation and stiffness
During the day, when you are moving around you will most often have problems with pain associated to inflammation. COOLING DEEP PAIN RELIEF will reduce inflammation, helps to keep your system alkaline and help to manage pain. Aromatics like Menthol and Camphor invigorate your feet.
During the night, or when the weather gets cold we need warming oils to stimulate circulation like ginger and helichrysum, hyssop and juniper to keep our joints nice and limber. When we are resting, our circulation focuses on the core of our body. For this reason arthritis sufferers wake up with stiff joints in the morning. Powerful ARTHRITIS WARMING OIL will draw circulation to your joints to prevent them from locking up, help to soften and elongate tissue for warming pain relief. This is a great treatment for hands, feet, knees, hips and our spine.
| Cooling & warming treatments can be layered to to benefit from the effects of both treatment without weakening the other. |
