Foot Reflexology

Think about how much stress your feet go through each day. No body part is more abused than your feet. Standing, running, jumping – our feet do it all! Reflexologists believe that overall health begins in your feet and travels up. The benefits of foot massage are endless – not to mention it feels great!

Foot Reflexology massage can be a deeply relaxing and therapeutic modality for those suffering from plantar fasciitis, ankle injuries or even everyday work and play. Your massage therapist will apply traditional Swedish and sports massage techniques to the foot, calf and upper leg. This will not only help relieve toe pain, ankle pain, plantar fasciitis and common forms of arthritis, but can also decrease stress and anxiety in the entire body.

In addition, a variety of stretches can be beneficial. With pain and sensitivity in the foot, heel and calf areas, make sure to communicate your pain levels to your massage therapist during your treatment. It is also advised to rest after receiving the reflexology massage.

Practitioners and patients alike confirm that reflexology can:

  • Increase energy
  • Relieve stress, pain, and anxiety
  • Improve blood and lymph circulation
  • Relieve pain from MS
  • Stimulate the activity of internal organs
  • Relieve pressure on legs and feet during pregnancy
  • Enhance general wellbeing,
  • Encourage relaxation,

The benefits are not purely physical. A good foot massage can also improve your mental and emotional state. Most of those who seek for a reflexologist are longing for relaxation and stress relief. If you have less stress in your life, your chance of heart disease drops considerably.
