What is a Foot Massage Chart?
A , also known as a foot reflexology chart, is a diagram that reflexologists use to show them the pressure points in a client’s foot that correspond to certain areas of the body. It’s a resource typically used in traditional Chinese medicine. There is an illustration of the foot with multiple points or areas labeled according to an organ or part of the body that is affected when a reflexologist adds pressure on a particular point.
Although designed for the benefit of reflexologists, it’s also helpful to the practitioners, patients, and students of reflexology, especially if they customize it according to their needs.
