GET FOOTLOOSE
The theory behind reflexology is that the reflexes in the feet are connected to the glands, organs, nerves, muscles, and bones of the body-and that a relaxing foot massage could cure what ails you (or at least make you feel a lot less stressful about it). Here's how to do it:
Set aside fifteen to twenty minutes. Coat hands with lotion, then sit down. Picture the foot as being divided into five vertical strips running up from the heel to each toe. Starting at the heel, gently massage one strip of the foot all the way up to the big toe. Then go back to the heel. and massage the second strip up to the second toe. Continue with the other strips, ending with the little toe. Finish by pressing the center point in the upper middle part of the foot. Do the same with the other foot.
