Alternating Foot Bath – targeted blood flow and relief for the legs

Try a simple yet highly effective treatment that uses alternating warm and cold water to support circulation and relax the legs.
At Spa Resort Sanssouci, this treatment is part of our spa and wellness programmes focused on improving peripheral blood flow and preventing vascular problems.

Treatment procedure and effects

During the treatment, the client alternately treads in warm and cold water in two small tubs.


The temperature contrasts trigger a response in the vascular system that has a number of positive effects:

  • improves blood flow to the legs
  • helps with a feeling of heavy or cold legs
  • contributes to relaxation and a calmer nervous system
  • also has a beneficial effect on migraines and autonomic disorders

It is a simple, natural and non-invasive method that is also suitable as a complementary therapy to more demanding treatments.

Who is the treatment suitable for?

The alternating foot bath is suitable for:

  • insufficient blood circulation in the limbs
