HOW to Use Wet Towel Treatment

Wet towel treatment works, because when the feet go from being very warm to very cold, the body wants to warm them up and return to homeostasis. To do this, it increases circulation and blood flow, which in turn moves blood through all your systems, including the lymph system, which increases the immune response to everything else happening in the body at the same time.

I have successfully used this treatment with myself and my children, always with positive results. When my baby is coughing at night, wet towel treatment works faster than cough medicine to stop the coughing and he usually falls asleep almost immediately. I also love that it is safe for children of any age and has no harmful side effects. When my baby was 2 months old and got a fever, I was worried about what dose of tylenol to give him, so while I waited to hear back from the doctor I tried wet towel treatment and it lowered his fever so much he no longer needed medicine. This is actually my very favorite home remedy for tiny babies.

Wet towel treatment works the best on colds and flu. It is especially helpful when congestion or fever is involved. Because it helps bring a fever down, I tried it on my last bout of mastitis and it worked wonderfully. Usually mastitis puts me on my back for 3 days at a time, but it cleared up in half the time. My immune system just seemed to need a little bit of help.
