5 Unexpected Health Benefits of Foot Massages

Many people neglect the health of their feet. These often neglected workhorses seem like one more part of the structure.

Yet medicine and surgery have entire career fields to deal with feet. Podiatrists spend their entire career working with this one small area.

Like any other body part, routine maintenance and preventive care show results.

In that mindset, let's look at the benefits of a foot massage. Maybe some of these will shock you, and maybe you will be lucky enough to already know about these exciting benefits.

Benefits of a Foot Massage

Even without going into the benefits of reflexology or energy flow dynamics, the feet hold a lot of potential for overall health. These 5 benefits reflect direct effects you can see with as little as one session of massage.

1. Prevents Nerve Swelling

Several serious medical conditions can be linked to pain in the feet. Because of the way that nerves run through the bones of the toes, prolonged inflammation may lead to continual damage. When nerve tissue goes untreated the swelling can lead to abnormal growth.

Nerve tissue relaxation is definitely one of the benefits of a foot massage.

2. Prevents Injury

Ever noticed how athletes rarely fall down under normal circumstances? Or how even an athlete that takes a colossal fall from a hit or a dive is able to walk it off? These abilities don't come by miracle.

Another of the benefits of a foot massage create give in the muscles of the foot and ankle. This give keeps the tissue from getting damaged when suffering a fall that would otherwise create an injury.

3. Headaches and Migraine Relief

Frequent and deep tissue foot massages have been linked with relief for headaches and migraines. Much like the ears, the feet help with controlling of temperature by circulating blood.

When increased diastolic pressure would create a headache, a foot massage can relieve that pressure and limit the headache pain and duration.

4. Back Pain Relief

When our feet hurt we tend to walk a little funny. Walking a little funny for more than a few days can cause issues with the alignment of the spine and hips. This will create inflammation of the lower back muscles and pain.

Don't treat foot pain as a mild annoyance. Get it dealt with to prevent that pain from spreading.

5. Sensual Benefits

You might not think of the feet as a particularly erogenous zone, but they are.

One of the most intimate benefits of a foot massage comes from the combination of relaxation and increased circulation. The next time you are looking to have a quiet evening at home, consider a foot massage before to unlock the hidden potential.
