这是什么
A simple heat practice in which the feet, from the ankles down, are placed in warm water. It is often easier at home than a full bath, and has been used for cold feet, tiredness, and winding down before sleep.
简短入门(不是治疗指示)
- Pour comfortably warm water (around 40°C as a rough guide) into a basin or a foot-bath vessel. The water should not feel scalding.
- Keep the feet covered above the ankle for 10 to 20 minutes. Add warm water if it cools.
- When the aim is sleep, it is often done about an hour before bed.
- Dry the feet afterwards and put on socks so they do not cool quickly.
常与此项一起提到的不适或目的
- 足冷或肿胀
- 容易发冷
- 失眠
- 疲劳
- 紧张或不安
调查笔记(并不承诺效果)
B:有随机对照试验或系统综述,但记述较有限、对象较窄,或研究质量有限
Several systematic reviews and meta-analyses from 2024–2025 have reported improvements in older adults’ subjective sleep quality after a warm foot bath before bed. Evidence on objective sleep measures is still weak. This does not show a treatment effect on cardiovascular disease.

不宜进行的情况
- Reduced sensation in the feet, for example from diabetic neuropathy (burn risk)
