Spa Socks with flax seed inserts




Tired achy feet be gone! With our super soft, super comfy spa sock and flannel inserts. Simply heat the flax seed inserts in microwave in 10 second intervals to get desired temperature (be careful not to over heat). Place your foot and heated inserts into spa socks for toasty toes and feet. Put your feet up, sit back and relax enjoying the warmth. Try putting your favorite lotion on first for skin softening. Excellent for cold nights wear them to bed!

Customize your inserts to suit your needs! You decide what herb(s) or unscented you want in them from the below list. Combined or just choose one. After your purchase just let me know in the message to seller what you prefer.

Chamomile- relaxant, calms the nervous system, insomnia, irritability, restlessness

Lavender- Arthritis, stress, circulation, relieving anxiety, depression and insomnia. Helps to relieve pain related to headaches.

Mint- helps with sinus and headache issues

Rose- antidepressant, astringent, antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory as well as aphrodisiac.


Flax seeds are great for retaining heat or cold. Flax-filled heated pillows provide a gentle, moist heat, which promotes healing, while their therapeutic weight is gentle and conforms to the body. Flax seeds are flower seeds rather than grain (such as rice). They contain 30-40% oil, which remains inside the seed to be warmed again and again. Most grain products loose their ability to retain heat as the water cooks out of them over time. Rice can actually "cook" and crack the more you heat it, same with beans; hence the smell. When heated, flax seed pillows retain half their heat after an hour. Under the covers, the pillow will still be warm hours later. Flax seed pillows may also be chilled for a calming and soothing cold pack. Use to cool a sunburn, fever, hot flashes or inflammation, or place on the neck or wrists to cool down on a hot day.

For people with allergies, flax seed is a great substitute for other materials often found in pillows. Some side effects may occur for people with allergies (herbs). If allergic reaction occurs, discontinue use immediately. When using on a child adult supervision is advised. For external use only.
