Why People Rub Vicks VapoRub on Their Feet at Night

Gently massaging Vicks on your feet can provide a warming, soothing sensation that relaxes tired feet and muscles.

How to Use

Wash and dry your feet before bed.

Apply a thin layer of Vicks VapoRub to the soles.

Put on cotton socks to lock in moisture and allow the ointment to work overnight.

Wash off in the morning if desired.
