Benefits of foot massage

Feet and human brain

Although the feet are relatively far away from the human brain, the feet have a unique connection with the human brain through thousands of peripheral nerves. If the amount of stimulation from our feet is not sufficient, it will cause an imbalance in the stimulation and inhibition of the cerebral cortex, resulting in insomnia, dreaminess, and tension and anxiety.

Feet and blood circulation system

There is a certain distance between the feet and the heart. The blood circulation in the feet is a difficult part of the whole blood circulation process. Poor circulation in the feet can easily cause varicose veins, arterial embolism and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Feet and body toxins

Many toxins produced by body metabolism can easily accumulate in the feet, causing many symptoms. For example, the accumulation of lactic acid bacteria, phenolic compounds, and alicyclopropylamine can cause fatigue, fatigue, and lack of energy. Accumulation of blood uric acid can cause gout and edema.

Feet and pathogenic bacteria

There are many germs and bacteria hidden in our feet, which not only causes athlete's foot and smelly feet, but also causes infection and space-occupying lesions in many sexual organs.

Promote the body's blood circulation system

The blood circulation of the human body is very important to the human body. Foot massage can very well improve our blood circulation, increase the body temperature of the feet, and finally promote the normal blood circulation of the whole body.

Feet and weight loss

Massaging the thyroid cyst, stomach, liver, and esophagus sole reflex areas on the soles of the feet is beneficial to weight loss (for obese people who are too meal-shaped).

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the intestines and stomach are connected by meridians, which can affect the body’s digestion and absorption functions. Massaging these foot reflex zones can promote the body's digestive function and metabolic rate, which is beneficial to weight loss.
