Foot massage
Your feet keep you going, day after day. Why not give them rest?
Foot massage has been practiced in many cultures for centuries to promote health and well-being. Today, foot massage is considered a complementary and alternative medicine used by millions to relieve pain, reduce stress and anxiety, rehabilitate injuries and boost general health.
The practice of foot reflexology massage involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet in order to affect various parts of the body. Whether you make time for self-massage after a long day or head to a spa for a session with a certified reflexologist, it won’t just be your feet that reap the benefits.
Essential in the foot massage is the solar plexus reflex. The solar plexus is sort of a little warehouse where all your stress is stored. When the solar plexus point is pressed on, stress is released, blood circulation can resume to its job to the fulles: of transporting oxygen and nutrition to the cells as well as cleansing waste and toxins away. Thus the body is renewed.
Benefits of a foot massage:
- Improved blood circulation;
- Better removal of toxins;
- Balance and harmony (homeostasis);
- Energy and rejuvenation;
- Enhancement of immunity.
