How to massage feet?

It is recommended to massage the entire foot, not just specific points. 

First, stretch and warm your feet: walk barefoot in the room, rise on your toes a few times and take a warm bath.

Rub your feet with gentle movements, then press each active point (for 3-7 seconds), starting from the toes and reaching the heel. 

Use techniques such as stretching (when massaging the toes), tapping (with the edge of the palm), pinching and rubbing.

You may find trigger points during the process. 

This means that the bodies they are responsible for are not well. 

It is recommended to pay special attention to them during the massage.

The technique of influencing the painful areas is carried out by pressure (with the thumb), which should be alternated with pauses. 

The whole process takes no more than a minute. 

If you did everything right, the pain goes away.

There are the following contraindications for foot massage: 

fever, blood coagulation disorder, exacerbation of chronic diseases, deep cuts or leg trauma.

Main areas of the legs.

The left and right feet are divided into 5 zones formed by 4 lines. 

Each area of ​​the foot corresponds to a certain area of ​​the body and the organs located in it.

First zone.

The location and meaning of the active points on both legs are identical. 

The reflex points of the paired organs (for example, the eyes) are located on the right and left feet, respectively.

Second zone .

It is recommended to massage the area reflecting the heart in case of strong excitement or stress.
