Raynaud's in your Feet?
Yes! Having Raynaud's Disease in your Feet is quite common!
You walk across the cold floor and suddenly your feet and toes go into a "spasm" attack of extreme cold. Your toes go pasty white and turn numb.
Maybe the situation that triggers your feet and toes into a hyper cold feeling is not as obvious, as a cold floor. You could be emotional, stressed or nervous, or maybe have a more complicated situation, like a thyroid imbalance or maybe you have frozen your toes and feet (frostbite) in the past.
Whatever causes the the blood vessels to constrict (vasospastic attack) in your feet and toes, you know how inconvenient, annoying and painful it is.
What is Raynaud's Phenomenon?
Raynaud's Phenomenon is a condition in which blood flow to the tissues of the feet and toes is temporarily decreased. The arteries of the toes may even collapse, further reducing blood flow to the extremities.

Solution for Raynaud's Toes
Far Infrared Socks have been shown to increase micro-circulation in the blood vessels and small capillaries in your toes and feet. Increased circulation equals warmer feet.
So, what does the infrared energy from the socks actually do? The natural FIR rays from the bio-ceramics fused into the thread activates and "energizes" each individual cell. The cells start to "vibrate" or "dance" with a little more keenness. As the cellular activity (metabolism) increases, the temperature of the cells increase and your feet feel warmer.
The changes in circulation help to bring fresh, nutrient-enriched blood back into the affected cells. The cells then have a chance to rejuvenate themselves and can once again function at optimum levels.
All you have to do is wear Prolotex™ FIR Socks on a consistent basis and you will notice an improvement in the overall temperature in your feet and toes. How simple is that?
