Bedtime foot massage

 
Alexia G. Studio


Since the feet contain reflex points to all organs of the body, when you give each foot a good massage you’re also massaging the organs associated with each pressure point. There are over 7,000 nerve endings on each foot so giving both a quick massage helps loosen the entire body allowing you to fall asleep sooner, stay asleep and get better sleep quality. ⁣⁣
