First Zone

The location and meaning of the active points on both feet are identical. The reflections of paired organs (for example, the eyes) are situated respectively on the right and left foot.

Second Zone

The meanings of the spots on the right and left foot differ. The heart reflection area on the left foot is recommended to be massaged when you feel strong excitement and/or stress.

How To Massage Your Feet

Rub the entire foot with gentle movements, then start pressing on every active point (for 3-7 seconds), moving from the toes to the heel. Use such techniques as stretching (when massaging toes), tapping (with the edge of the palm), pinching, and rubbing.

It’s recommended to massage the whole foot, not just certain points. First, stretch and warm up your feet: walk barefoot around the room, rise several times on your toes, and take a warm foot bath.

There are following contraindications for foot massage: fever, blood clotting disorder, exacerbation of chronic diseases, deep cuts, or trauma on the feet.

The technique of influence on painful areas is pressing (with your thumb), which you should alternate with pauses. The whole process should take no more than a minute. If you did everything right, the pain disappears.
