FROM THE PAGES OF KINGSPOINT Foot and Ankle Specialists

Our feet are our constant companions; they carry the weight of our entire body dly, enabling us to move freely across the world. Despite their crucial role in our functionality, they often receive insufficient attention until it becomes necessary.

Kingspoint Foot and Ankle Specialists understand this imbalance better than anyone else, especially Doctor Benji who recognizes the importance of foot care. He enlightens us about the extraordinary health benefits of regular foot massages combined with reflexology techniques.

Foot massage has its roots in ancient Chinese culture where traditional practitioners believed that a dense network of reflex points on the feet corresponds to various organs and glands within the body. By stimulating these points through pressure, we can promote a harmonious balance between yin restorative and yang energetic forces, thereby enhancing overall health.

Let's delve into some remarkable advantages of foot massages:

  1. Boosts Circulation

Living in today's sedentary lifestyle, our foot muscles might not receive the necessary movement they need to pump oxygen throughout the body effectively. Regular foot massages improve circulation in your lower extremities, which is especially beneficial for those with diabetes as it helps transport oxygen and nutrients to cells.

  1. Enhances Relaxation

A well-deserved 5-10 minute foot massage before bed can significantly reduce stress levels, inducing a sense of calmness and alleviating discomfort from standing or walking for long periods.
