It is no secret that the feet are the projection of the entire human body, for placing a pressure on a certain point it can have an effect on specific organs of the body. The reason for that is that the feet have a large concentration of nerve endings (around 70 thousand in total). It is no wonder that the feet are considered a “map” of the body.
During a foot massage, the applied pressure on certain points can have influence on organs and body as a whole. For example, to relieve headache you need to massage the big toe, in the case of eye disease – the two middle fingers, but when experiencing ear pain – the outer toes, whereas for spinal problems – the inner side of the arch of the foot.
Foot massage can take care of insomnia and relieve nervous tension, prevent swelling and restore circulation; Thai foot massage effectively reflects in the body's immune system and can aid in improving the digestive system.

In any other case, a Thai foot massage will bring long-awaited relaxation and joy.
