Cold feet is a very common symptom that thousands of people all over the world experience every year; if your feet are cold when temperatures around them aren\u2019t or if you\u2019ve always been used to keeping two pairs of wool socks nearby, then it could be an underlying medical condition causing it, and it could range from high blood pressure through to an underlying heart condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you experience cold feet as a chronic symptom, then the first step is to see your doctor in order to find the right treatment \u2013 but there are many natural treatments that you can follow along with your normal conventional treatment when you\u2019ve found out what the cause of your cold feet might be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you aren\u2019t sure about any of the treatments on this list, ask your doctor first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 8 amazing natural remedies to relieve cold feet that can help to compliment your traditional form of treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Drinking Coffee<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Circulation <\/a>issues and heart problems are some of the most common causes of cold feet out there, and it\u2019s always something that you should have checked out by a professional \u2013 it only takes a simple scan, and it could save your life to have a heart check-up once every six months. Plus, it can offer you a viable solution to your cold feet with just a simple check to see what\u2019s causing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coffee is well-known for its health benefits, and one of the main benefits that you can get from a great cup of coffee is an improvement in overall circulation. While you should never push it on caffeine-containing products or coffee if you have any underlying heart problems, a little bit of coffee can be great in helping to naturally improve your circulation and keep your heart in good condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many other conditions, including Raynaud\u2019s syndrome, can also benefit from coffee \u2013 but can also be triggered by excess consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2. Massage with Essential Oils<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Massage <\/a>is one of the best things for promoting both mental and physical health, and it can be one of the best things if you experience cold feet. Most of the things that cause cold feet have to do with circulation issues of some sort, whether temporary or chronic, and massage can help to get the blood flowing again \u2013 and help to warm up the feet \u2013 in the most natural of ways.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is great for helping to alleviate tense muscles and tendons, too, and your body will thank you. Essential oils are a great addition and can enhance the relaxing effect of massage. For cold feet, oils can even be slightly heated first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t have to visit a professional massage therapist every time you want a good massage or relief from your symptoms. There are a lot of great guides and books out there which can teach you the basics, or you can ask a therapist to recommend some self-massage techniques that you can apply at home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

3. Introducing Spices to Your Diet<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you experience cold feet together with symptoms like a lowered immunity (which often comes associated with repeated infections like the flu over a long period of time), then it\u2019s time to take a closer look at your health as a whole. Of course, an appointment with your doctor is a great start \u2013 but you can also introduce spices <\/a>and herbs to your diet in order to help.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The health benefits of spices are far more than what we could write about in this article alone, and there are many spices that are known to be great for improving circulation and supporting the heart. These are the ones you\u2019re after if you want to make a change to your health in cases of whatever is causing cold feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Increase your intake of pepper (either white or black), cayenne pepper and other foods people would think of as spicy or hot: All of these are great for warming up the body and can help the heart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

4. A Healthier Diet<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The addition of more spices isn\u2019t the only thing that you can change around when you notice that it\u2019s time for an improvement in your health routine. If you are trying to take care of your body more in general \u2013 and trying to alleviate a symptom such as cold feet \u2013 then it starts with being healthier, and the easiest way (and first step!) is to switch over to a healthier diet<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following an unhealthy diet can lead to heart problems, obesity and other issues, which have the potential to knock your entire system out of rhythm \u2013 and can also cause cold feet in the first place. Change your diet to a healthier and more natural one and note if you experience any changes in your symptoms for the better. If not, switch over to another diet plan or speak to a nutritional expert about what could make your diet better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

5. Hydrotherapy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hydrotherapy <\/a>is one of the best things to take care of circulation issues, and it can be one of the most helpful things for your system if you experience chronic circulation problems or regular problems with cold feet. Being in the water helps to take the tension off the body, and it can help to improve circulation in a lot of cases where people aren\u2019t able to get cardio-exercise \u2013 for example, because of their heart.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of people forget the fact that hydrotherapy doesn\u2019t have to happen inside a swimming pool, but can also happen in the average bath. If you don\u2019t have access to a swimming pool, then getting into a warm bath can do just as much for you as a swimming pool will when it comes to alleviating circulation problems and cold feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also add some essential oils to your bath in order to enhance the effect, and after a warm bath is one of the best possible times for a tension-release massage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

6. Application of Heat<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The direct application is very well-known to be useful in the case of muscle sprains <\/a>and injuries \u2013 but it can also be just as helpful when it comes to alleviating cold feet. If you experience cold feet as a chronic and annoying symptom, then you can try the application of heat through several different ways as symptomatic relief \u2013 but remember that it won\u2019t treat the cause of the symptom or make it go away!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heated pads are great, and can be warmed up in the microwave \u2013 but make sure that you get a proper, approved and tested type for this, and never let it warm up for too long, since they can dangerous, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hot water bottles aren\u2019t recommended due to the fact that they present a hazard if they were to burst or leak \u2013 and yes, this is very common.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, the responsible application of heat can help a lot! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

7. Compression Socks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Compression socks<\/a> are available to order online, and they\u2019re recommended for a lot of conditions that cause circulation and circulation problems. They\u2019re also usually prescribed after someone has undergone surgery and has to alleviate the risk of blood clots \u2013 but they\u2019re not just for this.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have cold feet on a regular basis, then it could take a little more than just regular socks to fix it. Compression socks offer you the benefit of being a tight fit, and improving circulation, which can be what you need in order to warm up your feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you experience any worsening symptoms after wearing compression socks, make an appointment with your doctor and cease treatment until you\u2019ve spoken to a medical professional. There are some health conditions that can be made worse by compression socks, and you\u2019re better off not taking that risk if this method doesn\u2019t happen to work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

8. Heated Blankets<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Applying direct heat is one of the best ways to get at least temporary symptomatic relief from cold feet \u2013 and it\u2019s one of the natural methods that work the best when you\u2019re in an emergency and nothing else works. Heated blankets are better than hot water bottles just because they\u2019re safer, and sometimes better than a hot bath just because a heated blanket can be a lot less effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re going to use a heated blanket, remember never to set it up to the highest setting: Sometimes cold feet can also mean feet that aren\u2019t as sensitive to temperature <\/a>changes, and you could burn if you aren\u2019t careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When used responsibly, heated blankets can be one of the best ways to alleviate cold feet \u2013 but you should still see your doctor treat the cause since heated blankets are symptomatic relief instead of a treatment for the condition itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\r\n
