Foot Massage Therapy / Reflexology

Foot massages are one of the most relaxing massages you can get . The feet bare the weight of the body and provide sensory input into your brain critical for balance.  Keeping care of our feet not only reduces tension and pain in the feet themselves but can prevent falls by increasing balance.

The muscles and joints of the feet provide critical sensory input into the brain and nervous system.  Your brain interprets that information and then sends the necessary information back down to the legs and to the feet to keep us properly balanced.

Whether you are a professional or an amateur, we are all athletes to some degree. Taking care of your feet removes stress and tension and increases human performance. Whether you are going for a walk or throwing a baseball in a “strike-zone” at over 100 mph both activities require balance.

Benefits of Foot Massage

• Decreases foot pain and tension from the feet
• Hydrates and nourishes the skin
• Reduces stress
• Improves circulation
• Prevents injury and promotes faster recovery
• Reduces swelling

Reflexology Points

Even though this service is generally used to ease foot pain, other parts of your body can also receive relief from this modality.  The soles of your feet contain multiple reflexology points; areas that correspond with certain muscles, organs, glands, and nerves in your body.  When pressure is applied to a specific reflexology point, the corresponding body part will be stimulated. Reflexology has been shown to alleviate headaches, promote better sleep, lower blood pressure, clear nasal congestion, and relieve symptoms of medical conditions such as cancer or diabetes.

Relax your body with a massage, but don’t forget to treat your feet with a foot massage.
