The use of hydrotherapy is one of the oldest traditional treatments. There are many different types of hydrotherapy, including baths, steams, pour-over therapies, and the application of wet towels or sheets. In this case we are interested in contrast hydrotherapy, or using water that alternates from hot to cold to stimulate circulation and immune system function. Warm water vasodilates, improving circulation to peripheral tissues (like the nose, sinuses, hands and feet). Cold water vasoconstricts, reducing circulation to peripheral tissues and increasing circulation to vital organs (like the heart and lungs). Alternating warm and cold water further increases circulation and acts as a physiologic pump, increasing the flow of lymphatic tissue. This improves immune system function by forcing the movement of immune cells (white blood cells) in and out of circulation. One study even shows improvement in bronchial function after cold applications.

What’s so “magic” about wet socks? “Magic” warming socks is a hydrotherapy treatment used for relieving inflammation or congestion around the head and neck. Though the socks start cold we call it “warming” because the feet end up warmer than they started! This treatment can be used for sore throats, ear infections, sinusitis, headaches, migraines, and more. It works especially well when congested from the common cold. Cooling the feet creates a vasoconstrictive effect in the feet, hands, nose and ears as the body shunts blood away from the periphery toward vital organs. As the feet heat back up the blood vessels in peripheral tissues dilate, carrying white blood cells, our main immune infection-fighters. The best part: It’s cheap, easy, and much safer than using over-the-counter decongestants. And yes, it really works! Who should not do hydrotherapy? Any patient with decreased sensations (diabetics, patients who are paralyzed, etc.) should not do
