I love to do this to a man's feet. It's quite rewarding to see him melt into a puddle of helplessness and be renewed. Most people really appreciate the practice of reflexology. It's applying pressure to places on the feet that correlate with systems in the body, therefore applying pressure to the feet, affects the entire body's systems.
It relaxes a person's entire body as if they were massaged everywhere, keeps body functions in happy working order, reduces pain, and helps promote a great night's sleep. If you love someone, give them a delicious session of foot reflexology.
Don't forget, you can do this to yourself, but like any delicious practice, it's always much better doing it to someone else!
Here's a reflexology blog.
