Traditional Chinese Foot Massage
Traditional chinese foot massage has the ability to treat the whole body from
the feet through the use of specific pressure and massage of acupuncture points of the lower
part of the legs and feet.
In China, the earliest known documentation of reflexology dates back to the fourth
century BC, when it was practiced in conjunction with acupuncture by a doctor name Wang Wei.
While one of the benefits of a good foot massage is a general feeling of relaxation, reflexology is an
exact science with larger goals.
Reflexologists must be schooled in applying pressure in precise locations to best aid patients. Specific areas
of discomfort on the foot tell the therapist a great deal about the health of the patients internal organs.
Like most Eastern medical techniques, reflexology concentrates on treating the whole
person rather than just the symptom of one particular ailment.
Benefits include:
- Improve digestive function
- Reduces numbness of lower limbs
- Improves sleeping patterns
- Strengthens the immune system
- Reduces stress
- Reduces foot pain
- Improves circulation
- Reduces swelling of the lower extremities
- And more
Our staff person, practicing under the direction of Dr. Kuenzel, was fully trained in
Nanning, China at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. In China this treatment is
part of the normal hospital treatments as is acupuncture.
