eye care | foot care | hair care | mouth care | nail care | skin care
Anyone agrees with the Ayurveda's proven (and felt) theory
that the legs are the most stressed of all bodily organs,
but the legs are also the most often overlooked and forgotten
feature of our body, especially by men.
Ayurveda care herbal inscriptions warn that lack of proper
feet cultivation will result in disorders varying from slight
annoyances to more serious complications. Such examples are
cracks in the skin, bunions and also infections.
Simple hint from Ayurveda health texts; Daily massaging
your feet with indicated oils will result in softer and supple
feet while even obtaining a relaxing feeling.

Treating Corns. If the feet are not sitting comfortably
in their holding shoes then the bony parts of the foot are vigorously
rubbed with the shoes, while the extra pressure incurred interferes
with blood circulation thus resulting in corns. Herbal Remedies;
- Frequently apply on the corn/s any one of the following; milky juice from green figs, papaya juice or sap from marigold stem.
- Another natural herbal remedy is a slice of lemon bandaged around the corn and left overnight.
Healing Herbal Remedy for Cracks on Heels
Aggravation of the Pitta and Vata Doshas caused by excessive exposure of the feet to the sun, water and wind causes cracks to the feet especially to the heels according to Ayurveda medicine studies. Herbal products are also ideal for cracks caused by continuous barefoot walking on rough surfaces.
- Take three tablespoons of bees’ wax mixed to 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, warm up and apply to cracked areas as it is clearly stated within the history of herbal medicine.
- Apply sesame oil or Ghee.
- 1 teaspoon of mango tree sap mixed with 1 tablespoon of water may also be applied as an Ayurveda herb paste against cracks in the feet.
