Insomnia and restless nights are often caused by an overloaded mind. A foot massage before bed helps calm the mind by activating acupressure points linked to relaxation. By creating a soothing atmosphere with lavender or chamomile essential oil, you prepare your body and mind for a deep, restful sleep.
Acupressure Point Stimulation: Overall Well-Being
Did you know that your feet are a true map of your body? In traditional Chinese medicine, they are linked to various organs through acupressure points. By massaging these areas, you can not only relax your feet, but also improve your energy balance and even relieve headaches or tension elsewhere in the body.
Improved Mood and Body Connection
Foot massage not only relaxes the body, it also affects mood. By stimulating the production of endorphins, it helps reduce anxiety and improve your emotional state. Moreover, by taking this time for yourself, you reconnect with your body, promoting greater self-awareness.
Hydration and Skin Care
Take advantage of this ritual to nourish your skin by applying a moisturizer or plant-based oil. This keeps your feet soft and prevents calluses. For an even more relaxing effect, gently warm the oil before use.
