What is Foot Massage?
Foot Massage is a well-known procedure that helps to relax especially after a long day of activities when the feet feel swelled up. Other than that, foot massage is strongly claimed to greatly improve circulation in the extremities, which means it is particularly important for people suffering from diabetes.
Foot massage has a natural healing property and positive effects on depression, anxiety, headaches, and migraines. Frequent sessions have been shown to reduce anxiety in cancer patients significantly. Moreover, for the ones with high blood pressure caused by stress and an unhealthy diet, a foot massage session up to 3 times a week can result in improved mood as well as lower blood pressure.
How It Works
Foot massage mainly uses hands to massage from the toes up to the lower legs below the knees, focusing on relieving muscle tensions. Moreover, a tiny massage stick could be used to roll over the toes and sole area for further massage procedures to help in reaching deeper pressure points.
