Introduction
"The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art!"
Leonardo da vinci, explained the greatness and beauty of the human foot
which initiates the journey to a wonderful life. We all love to have a glowing,
clean and beautiful looking skin in our body. However, foot is one part we
usually ignore taking care off. A simple foot spa at home or a visit to a foot
spa or saloon can do the job. In this current article, we will talk about the
basic procedure of foot spa, know about the essential tools and equipments
used in foot spa and also talk about how to make foot spa at home along
with the wonderful benefits of foot spa.
Body Temperature
Your body’s like a little furnace. It puts out heat all the time. It comes from your
body doing the work that keeps you alive. When it puts out a lot more or a lot
less heat than usual, it’s trying to tell you there’s a problem.
Normal Range
Not everyone’s “normal” body temperature is the same. Yours could be a whole
degree different than someone else’s. A German doctor in the 19th century set
the standard at 98.6 F, but more recent studies say the baseline for most people
is closer to 98.2 F.
For a typical adult, body temperature can be anywhere from 97 F to 99 F.
Babies and children have a little higher range: 97.9 F to 100.4 F.
Your temperature doesn’t stay same all day, and it will vary throughout your
lifetime, too. Some things that cause your temperature to move around during
the day include:
How active you are
What time of day it is
Your age
Your sex
What you’ve eaten or had to drink
(If you’re a woman) where you are in your menstrual cycle
Fever
How high is too high when it comes to your temperature? Anything above
100.4 F is considered a fever. You may feel terrible, but on the whole, a fever
isn’t bad for you. It’s a sign your body is doing what it should when germs
invade. It’s fighting them off.
However, if your temperature is 103 F or higher or if you’ve had a fever for
more than 3 days, call your doctor. Also call if you have a fever with
symptoms like severe throat swelling, vomiting, headache, chest pain, stiff
neck or rash.
For children, fevers are a bit more complicated. Call your pediatrician if your
child is:
Under 3 months and has a rectal temperatures of 100.4 F or higher
Between 3 months and 3 years and has a rectal temperature over 102
F
Older than 3 years and has an oral temperatures above 103 F
Between 3 and 6 months and -- along with a fever -- is fussier or more
uncomfortable than usual, or doesn’t seem alert
Sick enough for you to be concerned, regardless of what the
thermometer says
Hypothermia
If your body loses too much heat, it can be very serious, even fatal.
Hypothermia is when your body temperature goes below 95 F. You might
think of hypothermia as something that only happens when you’re exposed
to extremely cold weather for a long time. But it happens indoors, too.
Hypothermia is a special concern for newborns and the elderly.
Babies may not be good at regulating their temperature. They can lose heat
quickly. It’s important to keep them warm. A temperature below 97 F is
considered too low for babies.
Older adults can also struggle to keep their body temperature in a normal
range if they’re somewhere with intense air conditioning or there’s not
enough heat.
For both the elderly and young children, a below-normal body temperature
can be a sign they’re sick.

Other things can also make you more likely to get hypothermia. They
include:

Procedure Of Foot Spa And Its Benefits: Taking Care Of Your Feet
Ion-Cleansing foot detox machine for the foot and foot detox:
This ion-cleansing detox machine for foot is basically used in order to
increase the physical and mental energy, stamina and vitality, to detoxify
the body of toxins, radiations, chemicals and pollution and to internally
cleanse the body of toxins or parasites which in turn reduces inflammation,
enhances memory, reduces headaches, reduces the fluid retention, and
provides many more benefits to the feet and the body.
The basic with which this machine works is that the process uses osmosis
for movement of particles through a membrane from an area of low
concentration to an area of high concentration. The negative ions course
through the body, collecting the toxic substances present and thereby
neutralizing the positive charges.

However, it must be noted that people with pacemaker, implanted organs,
the epileptics, women during their pregnancy, those with open wounds on
the feet, people under chemotherapy, those who are newly operated, the
diabetic patients etc must not undergo this treatment of foot detox in the
ion- cleansing foot detox machine.
Now, let us come to the steps for making the foot spa at home.
1. Trimming: Trimming is done by the following steps.
Remove the nail polish(if any) from your toe nails by using a nail
polish remover
Cut your nails in the required nails
In order to soften your cuticles, apply a cuticle cream.
Then, file your nails so as to get the shape you desire for.
2. Foot Soak: Then begins the soaking of your foot. So this goes as
below.
In a medium size bath tub, put lukewarm water and add your
essential oils to it or 1/2 tbsp of Epsom salt and 3 tbsp of almond oil
to it.
Next, add the foot wash to it. In case you do not have a foot wash, you
can add shampoo to it. Stir it all well.
Soak you feet in the tub or the foot bath and relax them for 10
minutes. You can have reduced pain and inflammation. The water
solution also helps in removing the dirt and exfoliating the dead skin
cells from the feet.
Now, remove your feet from the water and dry it properly.
5. Application of Nail polish: Finally, apply the nail polish on your feet
toenails and allow it to dry.
You need to wear socks for protecting the feet from dirt and germs
after the foot spa is done.
Conclusion:
So, now that we are known to the basic procedure of foot spa and the steps
for doing foot spa at home, why not treat your feet to their best and serve
them up for taking the most wonderful steps of your life?
"May your feet take you where you want to go!"
Working to prevent risks can turn out to be a good strategy. According to the
Swedish Work Environment Authority*, during 2014 over 1,000 work
injuries were caused by chemical/biological substances.
Illness among the staff increases the costs for an organisation. When the
Swedish Work Environment Authority conducted a project in 2003 and
checked 1,800 workplaces, they found that two out of three were deficient in
their chemical checks. This is an alarmingly high proportion. Also, accidents
in which chemicals are leaked into the environment can have considerable
consequences for a company, not least of which is that they lose trust
capital.
