A foot massage is a therapeutic technique that focuses specifically on the feet, applying pressure and manipulation to various points and areas of the feet to promote relaxation, relieve tension, and improve overall wellbeing. Foot massage has been practiced for centuries in various cultures around the world and is often incorporated into holistic healing practices such as reflexology and traditional Chinese medicine.

During a foot massage session, the therapist may use their hands, fingers, thumbs, and even specialized tools to apply pressure to specific points on the feet. These points correspond to different organs, systems, and areas of the body, according to the principles of reflexology. By stimulating these reflex points, foot massage can help promote balance and harmony within the body, as well as target specific health concerns or areas of discomfort.
