Corresponding organs of women's feet

The sole of the foot is equivalent to our entire body. Every organ of our body can find a corresponding waveguide in the sole of the foot. If there is pain in any part of the sole of the foot, it basically corresponds to the organ of the body; or if it hurts when the foot masseur asks you to massage it, it means that there is a problem with that internal organ.

1. The big toe: Just like the human head, the big toe and each toe are equivalent to the reflex areas of the head, neck, and face, including the reflex areas of the soles of the feet of the human brain, thalamus, pituitary gland, trigeminal nerve, five senses, teeth, etc.

2. The upper end of the sole: equivalent to the human chest cavity, including the reflex areas of the sole of the foot such as the lungs, bronchi, heart, thyroid cysts, thyroid gland, deltoid muscle, etc.

3. The middle of the sole of the foot: It is equivalent to the abdomen, and has the reflex areas of the soles of the feet for key human organs such as the stomach, intestines, pancreas, gallbladder, liver, spleen, and kidneys.

4. Heel: Reproductive and metabolic organs (uterus, ovaries, prostate, etc.), bladder, urethra, anus, etc., as well as intestines, colon, cecum and other reflex areas on the soles of the feet.

5. The inner side of both feet: It is equal to the part of the spine, forming a line of the arch of the foot, which is the human spine: cervical - thoracic - lumbar - sacral.

6. Both sides of the feet: equivalent to part of the limbs, from top to bottom are the shoulders, elbows, knees and other reflex areas on the soles of the feet.

People often say that "feet are the second heart", but in fact it should be "feet are everything in our body".

Commonly asked questions about foot acupoint massage

The basic principles of foot massage are summarized in the "Sole of the Foot" chapter of "Huangdi Neijing": There are reflex zones on the soles of the feet for the various internal organs. Stimulating the reflex zones with massage can adjust the balance of functions, restore the function of human organs, and achieve the effect of curing diseases and improving health through blood circulation and nerve conduction. According to the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, people have "four roots" - earlobe, nose bridge, breast root and foot root, among which the foot root is the foundation of the four roots. When people age, their feet become weak first; when trees wither, their roots die first. This shows how necessary feet are to the body.

1. Appropriate massage posture When receiving a massage, the most appropriate and comfortable posture should be that the person being massaged should sit or stand, and the raised feet should not be higher than the buttocks. If they are raised too high, the nerves and blood vessels in the lumbar spine will be compressed and blood cannot be sent to the heart steadily. After an hour, numbness or cold feet will occur. On the other hand, if the blood flows back quickly, it will be dangerous for the elderly or patients with high blood pressure. Those who do self-massage can sit cross-legged near the edge of the bed or spread a blanket on the ground.

2. The massaged feet: The massaged side should clean the soles of the feet with soap. This can remove foot odor in summer and warm the feet and protect the skin in winter. Of course, one should remember to trim one's own toenails to avoid scratching the massager. If there is keratinization or hard meat on the soles of the feet, the reflection effect during massage will not be ideal. Therefore, when massaging, you can remove the keratinization and hard meat first, and the effect will be better. It is generally recommended to soak your feet in hot water first, and then apply a few drops of essential oil, which can not only remove the cuticle, but also promote blood circulation. If you apply a moisturizing lotion, the massage effect will be better.

3. The masseur's hands The masseur himself needs to develop a good habit of washing hands and trimming fingernails frequently to avoid dirt in the fingernails, causing bacterial infection or scratching the other party's skin. In addition, the nails should not be too short or too long. If they are too long, they will scratch the other party, and if they are too short, they will hurt themselves during massage, causing discomfort due to pulling the toes to the nail flesh. Therefore, during the operation, the masseur should first check whether his fingers and fingernails are clean and of appropriate length. In addition, to facilitate the movement of fingers and protect the skin, the masseur can also apply moisturizing lotion or hand cream. Because if the arms are clean, the friction between skin and skin and the feel of the actual operation will be the first injury. Generally, feet are thicker than hands and are less likely to be injured. If your hands are too cold, rub them to warm them up before pressing.

4. The three must-know massage methods: Foot massage is one of the best ways to maintain health in life and also a very good secret to self-health. Before you receive a foot massage from a pedicure therapist or perform a foot massage yourself, there are a few basic concepts that you must understand before you actually start. First, understand the three main massage techniques.

The so-called technique refers to using hands or other parts of the body to perform moderate light pressing on the body of the massaged person. The application of technique needs to be rhythmic, not too heavy or too light. When pressing, it must be steady and gentle, and it is not appropriate to press fast or slow at times, otherwise it will easily cause muscle injuries.

The massage method is based on the structure, tissue and reflexology of the feet, with simplified massage methods and processes, including preparatory, operational and integrated types. Each step of the preparation and integration process takes 2 to 3 minutes, while the actual operation process takes 10 to 15 minutes.
