Experience Benefits of 60 Reflexology Massage ONLY $99
Foot massage has
been practiced in many cultures for centuries to promote health and
well-being. Today, 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.
Massaging the feet can alleviate anxiety and
bring about a deep state of relaxation. One important point that is
situated on both feet 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 and the body is
renewed.
The blood that circulates through the body is
responsible for transporting oxygen and nutrition to the body’s cells.
The blood also cleanses waste and toxins from the body. Because blood
flow becomes limited when stress is present, foot massage can be
beneficial as it decreases stress and allows the circulation of blood to
flow unimpeded.
Homeostasis is when all the body’s systems
are working in harmony with one another to bring about a state of
balance. A foot massage can encourage homeostasis so that good health
can be obtained.
Foot massage is restorative in that it gives
the receiver energy. When the foot is rubbed and palpated, all the
elements of a foot massage come together to bring energy to the body.
According to theories of reflexology, foot massage releases any
blockages that can hold back energy that should be flowing through the
body freely.
Stimulation of reflexes in the feet through
massage is an action performed to bring about relaxation and healing.
Relaxing the body through foot massage may prevent the harmful effects
of stress from taking a toll on the body. A regular foot massage can
offer protection against the many diseases that are associated with
stress.
When given to your partner, a foot massage
can create the setting for a romantic evening. Rubbing the feet is
sensual, relaxing, nurturing and loving, and it is a wonderful way to
show your partner you care about her or him.
