WHY CEDAR WOOD?

1) 100% Cedar Wood - Cedar wood while light, is strong and of high density. It contains TCM medicinal properties and allowing the water temperature to last longer while soaking your feet.

2) 100% Natural Paint -  it is natural because it is wood, but what is special is that we use laquer paint that is made from natural wood fibre to maintain it's water proofing while making sure it is safe for your usage.

3) 100% Handmade - Using tradtional workmanship, our products are 100% handmade. By doing this we allow for a longer lasting product as the human hands can work corners that machines cannot and the human eye can put attention to detail.

As the cedar wood needs to be dried till around 12% humidity so that it can be used for handcraft work, it is advised that upon recieving your bucket, you fill it till about 1/3 of clean water and let it absorb some of the water for about 8 hours. This intialisation will help make the bucket more lasting.

Should you not use it for awhile (for more than 2 weeks), place a wet sponge in the wooden bucket and use a plastic bag to seal the bucket with the sponge in it to retain the wood's humidity.Just remember that when wood becomes too dry, it cracks easily.

Why foot- soak?
According to TCM, foot is the second heart of human body, a barometer that reflects the state of body health. Six meridians (liver, gall bladder, kidney, spleen and stomach) reach the feet. Soaking in hot water and sometimes taking herbal soaks warms the entire body, increasing blood flow upwards and relieving stress. This practice blocks what Chinese medicine calls "Wind-Cold” from penetrating more deeply into the body when exposure to Winter cold and wind has set off the cold "alarm” in your body with feelings of chills, headache, or mild fever. In herbal foot baths, the skin absorbs elements through the skin and these travel through energy channels to target points.
