What to do if women have cold hands and feet in winter

Many women will find in winter that even though they are wearing a lot of clothes, their hands and feet are still cold. The appearance of cold hands and feet will directly cause the whole body to feel very cold, but many women will say that they have worn so much that they can't wear any more, but they still feel cold hands and feet. So what should you do if you have cold hands and feet in this situation? Here I will introduce to you some methods of relief.

Foot bath

Foot soaking is the most effective method. Pour 40°C hot water into a deep basin and let the water reach above your ankles. After soaking for about 20 minutes, you will feel warm all over your body, which means that your blood circulation is smooth. The effect will be better if you rub your feet while soaking them. But you have to persist in soaking your feet, and don’t just do it for three days and then stop.

Aerobic exercise

Jogging, brisk walking, skipping rope, dancing disco, Tai Chi, etc. will make all parts of the body move and promote blood circulation. But don't exercise excessively. High-intensity exercise and excessive sweating will "vent yang energy" and have the opposite effect.

Get enough sleep

You should ensure at least 6 hours of sleep every day. Adequate sleep is beneficial for storing yang energy, accumulating yin essence, and enhancing immunity.

Rub the palms and soles of your feet

When you have time, you can rub the soles of your hands and feet frequently to improve the microcirculation of the terminal blood vessels and have the effect of warming your hands and feet, or you can massage the acupoints to improve the symptoms of cold hands and feet.

Massage points

Press and rub the Qi Chong point: The Qi Chong point is located on the inner side of the thigh root, and there is an artery below this point. First press and rub the Qi Chong point, then press and rub the arteries, alternating between releasing and pressing. Continue massaging until you feel heat flowing down your legs and feet.

Press and tap the Shenshu acupoints: The Shenshu acupoints are located on both sides of the waist. Apply gentle force and tap each side more than 100 times.

Many female friends are prone to cold due to their weak resistance. The occurrence of this situation will directly cause cold hands and feet, so it is recommended that in addition to keeping warm, you can also eat more tonic foods in normal times, so that you can recover better.
