The health benefits of foot massage have been scientifically proven. Now, the new claim that foot massage can also enhance beauty has also been confirmed. Research has found that the difference between foot beauty and other beauty methods such as makeup and surgery lies in the root cause. It is a beauty technique that cannot be compared to any other purely cosmetic procedure.
The reason why foot massage can enhance beauty is that the sole of the foot contains meridian acupoints related to all organs in the body. Proper stimulation of the foot can stimulate the adrenal glands, promote the secretion of hormones, activate the vitality of skin cells, accelerate their metabolism, reduce pigmentation, and make the skin fair, tender, and elastic.
Therefore, women who love beauty should join the foot bathing trend. This not only allows the feet, which are often squeezed by high heels, to be fully cared for, but also makes the appearance more beautiful. Why not do it?
Foot massage and foot therapy seemed to be privileges only for men for a long time, and women showed no interest.
Nowadays, with the opening of more and more high-end foot health centers, it has attracted many fashionable women. They often go with friends to not only "liberate" their tired feet but also eliminate fatigue. Of course, the main purpose is for body beauty and fitness.
In an environment that is clean, elegant, with bright windows, and surrounded by green plants, putting a pair of white and tender feet into a bath filled with petals and lukewarm medicinal water, while enjoying the massage of a foot therapist, chatting with friends or flipping through leisure magazines, the tense nerves suddenly relax, the accumulated pressure is released, and the mood becomes pleasant. With long-term persistence, the skin unknowingly becomes free from dullness and regains a natural and beautiful luster. People also become more confident as a result.
More and more white-collar women are joining the foot bathing trend. They have overcome their bias and developed a liking for foot therapy. It seems that foot therapy has become a part of urban women's lives and has become a fashionable consumption.
Foot therapy, also known as foot reflexology, can treat various diseases, especially functional diseases. It has significant effects on headaches and insomnia in the nervous system; menopausal syndrome and obesity in the endocrine system; constipation and diarrhea in the digestive system; as well as diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, prostate hypertrophy, enuresis, arthritis, irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and sexual dysfunction.
However, foot reflexology is not suitable for everyone. The contraindications include infectious diseases, skin diseases, severe bleeding, pregnancy in women, acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, renal failure, and other specific conditions that require diagnosis by a physician before proceeding.
It is understood that foot therapy is best performed within 1-2 hours before bedtime for optimal results. Based on this consumer demand, some domestic service companies in China have launched home foot therapy services.
