3 Main Benefits of Healspa’s Foot Reflexology
1. Promotes relaxation
There are more nerve endings in the foot than any other part of our body and these nerves correspond with the different reflex zones throughout the body. Stimulating reflex points on our feet is believed to restore balance to the body. A 2013 study carried out on 75 female patients in Iran concluded that the technique of reflexology was effective in reducing fatigue. Hence having a foot reflexology with proper foot massage techniques can help to relax and calm your mind and body and aid in restoring peaceful sleep.
2. Stimulates circulation
Applying pressure on the points of our feet can loosen the joints and ligaments in the foot and help to promote the circulation of energy and blood throughout the body. Our body organs can function more effectively with smoother blood flow to our vital organs. A 2008 study on 59 middle-aged women in their 40s and 60s showed that foot reflexology may be effective in improving blood circulation.
3. Lowers blood pressure
Studies have shown that the technique of foot reflexology can help to lower blood pressure. For example, a 2003 Korean study conducted on elderly patients with hypertension found that foot reflexology was effective in decreasing systolic blood pressure. Another study carried out in 2005 and published in the “Journal of the American Geriatrics Society” found that older adults (aged 60 and over) who walked on cobblestone surfaces had reductions in blood pressure and improvements in physical performance. Walking on uneven surfaces is believed to exert pressure on the reflex points on the feet which have direct relation to areas in the body.
