The foot of the human body is so important that it is called a second heart because not only the acupuncture points to which all organs are connected are concentrated, but also many capillaries and peripheral nerves are distributed.

In particular, the foot plays an important role in the blood circulation of the human body, if the blood circulation of the foot farthest away from the heart is not smoothly performed it may be the cause of development of various diseases or disorders.

For these reasons, people's interest in foot health, which has been relatively less interested, has increased, which is why we continue to improve the structure of the shoe that protects the foot by direct contact with the foot. The use of health aids such as foot baths or foot baths (hereinafter referred to as foot baths), foot pressure, foot massager to help release blood and circulation is increasing.

The foot bath is a device that submerges foot or hand in hot water and activates stagnant blood to improve the imbalance of body temperature.It promotes peripheral capillary blood flow of the foot, which is far from the heart, to remove waste and fresh blood. Since the development has been made in recent years because it helps to accept, and widely used bar, look at the "foot bath" of the domestic registration utility model No. 20-0244201 which one embodiment is disclosed as follows.
