The key is to treat the condition properly with the correct medicinal herbs and high steam temperature.

The herbal solution moves from the feet to the entire body along acupuncture channels and collateral's, which is capable of eliminating pathogenic influence. It balances Yin and Yang as the blood circulating herbs become absorbed. 

The Feet/Leg steam can detoxify, tone, and diminish inflammation & refresh the body. The blood circulating effects of the herbs makes use of the heat in the basin, and the healing aspects of the herbs propagate the level change in cells.
