Benefits of Foot Massage

Come put your feet up and recharge!

Reflexology dates back to ancient China and Egypt, documented in medical texts as far back as 4000 B.C.E.. Similar to acupuncture’s benefits and methodology, reflexology uses pressure rather than needles to activate points throughout the body to relieve pain, stimulate circulation, and bring balance to the bodily systems. 

In line with holistic thinking, if we view disease as an imbalance or blockage in the body versus a diagnosis, this means once we remove this blockage and allow the energy to flow freely the symptoms will subside and health will be restored.

The practice of reflexology follows the channels that map the entire body. Each organ corresponds with different channels which can be accessed through different points on the body. Though acupressure and reflexology can be practiced anywhere on the body, it is common to do so on the hands, ears or feet, where the meridian channels end and all come together. Concentrated in these areas, we can access every organ and system on the body. When we feel pain, have swelling, or tension in these areas, it may be an indication of a blockage or issue with these corresponding areas of the body

When massaging, heavy pressure is not necessary. The real benefit is more about accessing these points specifically. Bring those feet to me!!
