Warm foot soaks have been used for centuries in many cultures as a way to relax tired feet, soften skin, and promote a sense of calm after a long day. While often described online as “detox,” there is no scientific evidence that foot soaks remove toxins from the body. Their real value lies in comfort, relaxation, and skin care.
