There are a lot of options when it comes to adding ingredients like salts and oils to your foot bath.

Featuring two foot massage rollers, a toe-touch button, and a special heating element that can warm up the water up to 104 degrees Fahrenheit, this pedicure spa is perfect for those with achy and tired feet. You get three different massage frequencies - a continuous and strong massage, intermittent and gentle. My recommendation is to soak your feet in a whirlpool foot tub with warm water, with white vinegar or apple cider vinegar to be safe from complications,” says Dr. Weiser.
