Feet MassagesThe feet are the most important and probably the most neglected part of the body. It needs regular care and attention from time to time to make you feel healthy. Make sure your partner is warm and comfortable. Then uncover one foot by folding the by folding back the towel or blanket. Pour a little of the chosen oil into the palm of one hand. Rub your hands together to distribute the oil.

The steps for the Foot Massage are as follows:
1. Enclose the foot between both hands (one on top and one underneath) and then gently side your hands off the foot coming forward to the toes. This movement should be slow and soothing. Repeat four or five times.

2. Gently circle around the ankles using your thumbs. This area can be tender so go easy.

3. Rub over the top of the foot with your thumbs in little circles, coming down from the ankle area to the toes. Repeat three or four times.

4. Now rub each toe with the same little circular movements.

5. Rotate each toe twice in each direction. Then gently pull each toe between finger and thumb.

6. Zigzag down the sole of the foot from toes to heel with your thumbs overlapped.

7. Enclose the foot in your hands then rub them in opposite directions, to create frictions. This is very warming.

8. Hold the foot firmly and slowly rotate the ankle clockwise then anti-clockwise. Repeat a couple of times. Then repeat the first step.

Note: Once completed, wrap the foot up again for warmth and repeat the movements on the other foot. By now your massage partner will be feeling more relaxed and at ease with your touch.
