Health Benefits of Foot Massagers
Foot Massage has been in practice since time immemorial. It has become an integral part of health and well being over the centuries.
Various systems of alternative medicine almost always include a specific kind of foot massage e.g Shiatsu foot massage in Japan or Ayurvedic foot massage in India.
A good foot massager offers direct health benefits which include:
- Rejuvenated and Energetic Body: A good foot massager is capable of making a person receive the rejuvenated energy.
When the manual palpation and rubbing of foot is simulated by foot massager, the energy impulses it generates through the body
combines to galvanize the dull or low energy impulses of the body. The body then feels energized and rejuvenated.
|
- Stress Buster and Improved Circulation: Blood cleanses toxins from the body.
When foot massager increases the blood circulation, the toxins get reduced, thereby lowering the stress level.
In stressed state, the blood circulation is slower, further increasing the toxins and increasing the stress in turn.
- Improved Immunity and Resistance: As foot massage builds body immunity against diseases that are borne out of mental and physical stress,
a foot massager simulates the same effect by generating energy impulses through specific reflexes in foot.
- Alleviates Anxiety by Relaxation: When the specific point in both feet called solar plexus is rubbed in proper way, it relieves the anxiety and stress, relaxes the body.
It's important for a foot massager to be able to simulate this effect by rubbing the plantar properly.

Conclusion
I must conclude with an important clarification. Foot massagers do not cure plantar fasciitis by themselves.
Foot massagers help arch of the foot to relax and rejuvenate after we subject it through stretching exercises or unavoidable physical activities of the day like walking or standing for long.
This in turn helps in making our efforts to treat plantar fasciitis more effective.
| We need our foot to recuperate fast and foot massagers are very useful for that.
Last but not the least, foot massagers for plantar fasciitis give us much needed relaxation and critical psychological boost when we feel so debilitated by heel pain. |
