The Best Foot Massages In Toronto
We are quick to book ourselves in for a body massage after a long day of work, but rarely do our feet get the attention that they deserve. Did you know that your feet alone contains 29 muscles and 26 bones? Give your feet a treat. During a foot massage, each muscle will get its turn receiving pressure, and kneading to relieve all the tension that they hold; some stretching and manipulation to create space between all the tendons and vessels that may feel claustrophobic in these tight places. And let’s not forget the calves and knees that also get their spotlight. The whole body is mapped out on the feet and through acupressure it is possible to work on issues more than musculoskeletal. Overall, increasing blood flow, opening spaces and relaxing the rest of the body through the foot improves nourishment and motility of the tissues.
A few benefits from foot massages:
Local pain, injuries, stiffness, immobility issues
Postural issues
Reduce stress, tension, anxiety
Reduce edema
Lower blood pressure
