We tend to neglect our feet. They support our whole body most of the day, but when is the last time you gave them a really good massage?
The feet are important part of your body as they affect the rest of your body. If you have pain in the feet and can't walk normally, you will likely to have back pain, and also hip and knee pain.
The flexibility of the feet and toes are very important for your balance. If you had a surgery or have bunions, they are stiff and very inflexible and can be painful. You might think that's what it is, but the good news is a massage can change it!
What you can do at home is to roll the bottom of your feet on a golf ball, marbles or even a marker, or you can buy a foot roller. It could be painful, so start slow. You might also want to massage tiny muscles between the toes and the bones on the top of your feet.
The best way is to get a massage from a massage therapist. I also massage on your shins because the muscles moving the toes are actually up in the lower legs. And I can show you how to do it at home.
Give your feet a treat!
