With your hands!!!!!
with your own hands!
in some pharmacies,health food places they have items that might help. one Im thinking of its a little stand with rows of wooden balls and you rub your feet across that while watching tv etc.another is also made of wood and is for back massage but it could be rubbed on feet also the wooden balls give you pressure on those points on your feet to relax you
When my feet are tired and really aching I get two hard small balls (a bit smaller than a tennis ball and made of rubber), and sit down putting one underneath each foot. Then I roll my feet back and forth on them….lovely! Your chair needs to be at the right height so that your feet easily reach the balls when you sit back and relax.
Use a wooden foot roller. You can find one online by doing a Google search on “foot roller”.
Try a 20 oz coke bottle filled almost all the way up with either warm or frozen water. Works wonders, roll your feet over them.
you could look up reflexology and read books on it with pictures to show you how and what each part of the foot is what.
you can try like this as well:
-wash your feet or take a shower before
-use a foot balm or just regular lotion (preferably something with mint in it because you will feel the menthol going in your skin)
-use your thumbs more when pressing
-take a toe at a time, and start with gently moves, then add more pressure
-massage from top to bottom of toe (or a different part of foot)
-then go to the different parts of your foot and do the same
-put socks on after to keep your feet warm and to feel the relaxation longer (in the heat of your socks)
