How to use salt in socks for insomnia at night? Should it be warm and is Epsom salt the right choice? - #52757

Yes you can use it for insomnia. Put dry salt is advisable.

In Ayurveda, insomnia is often linked to an imbalance of Vata dosha. Keeping the feet warm at night can help calm Vata and promote better sleep. Using warm socks is beneficial, but salt in socks is not a traditional or necessary remedy. If anything, a warm foot soak with Epsom salt may help relaxation, but the main benefit comes from warmth, not the salt itself. –Padabhyanga with warm Tila taila at bedtime Ushna jala se pada prakshalana (warm foot wash) before sleep Ksheerapaka (warm milk) at night —Aushadhi: Ashwagandha Churna – 3 g with warm milk at bedtime Tagar Churna – 1 g at night –Pathya: Warm, unctuous diet Maintain regular sleep time Avoid screen exposure at night Apathya: Ruksha, sheeta ahara Late-night जागरण (staying awake) –Advice: Keep feet warm at night (wear socks if needed).
