foot soak

Warm water treatment

A foot soak is the act of immersing one's feet in warm water, often with added salts, oils, or other ingredients, to relieve soreness or soften skin: After the hike, I treated myself to a long foot soak.

The term also refers to products designed for this purpose: She bought a lavender foot soak at the pharmacy.
