Why Your Feet Are the Most Neglected Part of Your Body
The average person takes between 3,000 and 10,000 steps per day. Your feet contain 26 bones, 33 joints, and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments all working under your full body weight with every step.
And yet feet are almost always the last thing people think to care for.
The result: chronic foot fatigue, tight calves, swollen ankles, and that dull aching discomfort that becomes normal simply because it is constant.
A 15–20 minute soak 2–3 times per week changes this. Warm water combined with the right active ingredients relaxes muscles, stimulates circulation, reduces swelling, and creates a physical and mental reset that the whole body feels.

6 Benefits of the Wellness & Detox Foot Soak
| Benefit | How the Soak Delivers It |
|---|---|
| Relieves tired, aching feet | Warm water + calming botanicals relax the muscles and tendons that support your weight all day. Tension eases within minutes. |
| Reduces swelling & puffiness | Detox minerals help draw excess fluid from swollen tissue, particularly after long days of standing or sitting. |
| Calms with Chamomile | Chamomilla Recutita soothes inflammation, calms irritated skin, and creates a gentle aromatherapy effect throughout the soak. |
| Detoxifies foot skin | The mineral blend draws impurities from skin pores, leaving a cleansed, refreshed feeling from the inside out. |

How to Use the Wellness & Detox Foot Soak
- Fill a foot basin with comfortably warm water, enough to cover feet up to the ankles.
- Dissolve 1.5–2 tablespoons in approximately 4 litres of warm water. Stir until fully dissolved.
- Soak both feet for 15–20 minutes. Close your eyes and let the botanicals work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a regular foot soak or plain warm water?
Plain warm water softens skin slightly but contains no active ingredients to relax muscles, reduce swelling, or deliver the calming benefits of botanical activities. The Wellness & Detox Foot Soak XL combines Chamomile, detox minerals, and natural botanicals that actively draw tension from muscles, reduce puffiness in swollen tissue, and create a genuine aromatherapy experience. The difference is noticeable from the first use.
How is this soak different from Imperial Feet's other two soaks?
Imperial Feet has three foot soaks for three different purposes. This soak is for relaxation, detox, and tired or swollen feet. The Anti-Fungal Foot Soak XL targets toenail fungus, athlete's foot, and foot odour. The Cracks & Callus Foot Soak XL is specifically for softening calluses and cracked heels before filing. If you have multiple concerns, you can use different soaks on different days.
How often should I use this soak?
2–3 times per week for regular wellness benefits. For very tired or swollen feet after a particularly long shift or heavy exercise day daily use for a week delivers noticeable relief. This is a gentle, natural formula suitable for frequent regular use. Use it whenever your feet need it.
Is this soak suitable for swollen feet and oedema?
The detox minerals and warm water combination help draw excess fluid from swollen foot and ankle tissue, reducing the puffiness that builds from prolonged standing, sitting, or poor circulation. For chronic or severe oedema, consult your doctor or podiatrist before relying on soaking as a primary intervention.
Can I use this as a gift?
Yes — the Wellness & Detox Foot Soak XL is one of Imperial Feet's most popular gift products. The 450g XL size, botanical formula, and spa-quality experience make it a genuinely thoughtful gift for nurses, teachers, athletes, or anyone who deserves to take better care of their feet.
