Can pregnant women soak their feet with mugwort and safflower?

Patient's question:

Can postpartum women soak their feet with mugwort and safflower?

Doctor's answer:

Artemisia and safflower are two types of medicinal herbs. Artemisia is considered to be mild in nature and has the functions of warming the meridians, dispelling cold, relieving pain, and calming the fetus. It can be used by pregnant women. Its effect in calming the fetus is particularly beneficial for pregnant women, and it can also enhance disease resistance and prevent colds. It is especially suitable for people with particularly cold and weak constitutions, while it is not recommended for those with yin deficiency and blood heat. We often say that artemisia has very good effects on women, so artemisia can be used for pregnant women.
