3. Getting to know your appliance
Beneficial for your feet
Our feet play a weight-bearing role in our life – they carry our entire body weight. That is why your feet
want to be looked after. There are various possible methods:
•Kneipp foot baths: alternating hot and cold baths are the foundation of Sebastian Kneipp’s health
philosophy.
•Foot reflex zone massage: foot reflex zone massage is a very popular massage technique, in which
the entire body is believed to be influenced by treating the feet.

4
•Foot bubble bath: the foot bubble bath is a simple and popular method for looking after your feet at
home. Using a foot bubble bath, you yourself can actively do something good for your feet as often
as you like.
This foot bubble bath is extensively equipped:
• Massage sole,
• 3 removable attachments for foot care:
– Massage fittings,
– Brush,
– Corn and callous remover,
• 3 functions: vibration massage, bubble massage and maintains water temperature,
• Infrared light field
Relax yourself and your feet when using this foot bath. It can have the following beneficial effects:
• stimulates the circulation,
• promotes cell regeneration,
• revitalises and invigorates the feet,
• relaxes tense muscles.
Note
Warm foot baths with arnica, rosemary or sea salt extracts get the circulation going. Lukewarm
foot baths with lavender or thyme have a relaxing effect and are a blessing for exhausted feet.
