hands, legs and feet.

How does it work?
By practicing the WarmFeet® relaxation technique, described in the guide of the CD or cassette tape, you will come to learn the skill of relaxation. Relaxation allows the peripheral blood vessels to widen, which permits more warm blood to flow through the areas of the hands and feet.
To maximize positive outcomes of this technique, it is very important that you daily spend some time in learning it. You will have some success right away, improving blood flow and warming your feet. But practicing regularly, 1 or 2 times a day, 16 minutes at a time, will allow you to learn this new skill to mastery.
Learning any new skill takes time, patience and practice. Time varies from person to person. You are actually giving your body a ‘time out’ to repair and heal itself. Using ‘visualization’ to imagine the hoped for health outcome is highly effective.
How can I know if I am really relaxing correctly? You can learn this by using assisted temperature biofeedback (measuring skin temperature in hands or feet before and after relaxation). Increased skin temperature shows that you are more relaxed. Included in the WarmFeet® Kit is a personal skin thermometer and instructions on how to use it. The temperature biofeedback is an option to help and guide you in developing your skill of relaxation.
Benefits
The benefits of daily practice with the WarmFeet® technique include:
1) increased peripheral blood flow and warming of the feet;
2) reduced pain in legs and feet;
3) increased healing rate of foot ulcers, even chronic ones;
4) increased coping skills for life.
Most everyone is able to benefit from learning to relax with the WarmFeet® technique. Your whole being will benefit. People who have poor circulation in the legs due to age or complications from diabetes and/or peripheral arterial disease will show the most remarkable improvements.
What can I do now? YOU now have the opportunity to learn more about the WarmFeet® technique and learn to relax by ordering The WarmFeet® Kit . When you set aside some time to learn the skill, it will be well worth it.
You will have some success right away and the benefits will increase with practice. The technique is easy to learn and very pleasant. While you are learning the skill, it is good to select a quiet place in which to practice - a place where you will not be disturbed. Later, when you have mastered the technique, you can choose to relax anywhere, anytime.
You will be in charge, involved in your wellness and healing process. It is all there, within you. “Practice makes perfect” the saying goes, and when doing so - making it a habit - you, yourself will contribute to accomplishing your health goals. Consistent practice is important.

you started. Habit is
what keeps you going.”
