4. Salt Soak
Epsom salt is something that should be in every household. These salts can help alleviate all sorts of ailments, including athlete’s foot. Epsom salt helps to feed the skin sulfate and magnesium, both of which are minerals that can help to reduce inflammation. These minerals also can help kill bacteria that cause athlete’s foot.
To create a salt soak for your feet you can simply add a few tablespoons of the Epsom salts to a foot bath. Soak your feet in the salt bath for ten or fifteen minutes. Dry your feet thoroughly after the time is up. In order to get the best results from salt soaks you will want to use them two or three times each day. Adding Epsom salt to a bath and soaking your entire body can be beneficial as well. The minerals found in Epsom salt are good for the skin and can help to relax the body.
