Massage your feet and stay healthy

A simple way to help the body to maintain its balance is to massage your feet. This can be done while you are sitting in a cross legged position or semi-cross legged. Begin with  the left foot if you are a male and right foot if you are a female. The direction of energy goes from the base of your heel towards your toes. Start out gently and then you can apply more pressure gradually as you prefer. You can use the base of your fingers and thumbs. You can use your knuckles or the palms of your hands. A smooth rounded wooden tool can also be applied to certain areas if you like. You can use lotion or a foot balm as a lubricant if you want to help moisturize the skin. This will make your skin softer and feel rejuvenated. In between the pressure techniques you can use some relaxation type of massage techniques, that help you to feel relaxed. A lot of the bodies nerve reflexes are located on the soles of the feet. Massage each foot about 20 minutes at a time. The areas that are sensitive to slight pressure are signs that the energy could be blocked there. These sensitive areas can be massaged on but use gentle pressure at first, then after you have worked these areas you can loosen them up and break up these sensitive places. Massage your feet every day, or when you desire to, it can only benefit your health.The tops, sides, ankles, toes, in between your toes, can be massaged. These areas are very sensitive, use extreme care not to use too much pressure or a wooden tool. Have fun and enjoy your foot massges anytime or anywhere you feel like massaging them.
