What is Foot Zoning?

Resident Submission by Teralyn Smith

Foot Zoning is when a Foot Zone Practitioner accesses the body’s nerve signal system in your feet. They do this by using their hands to massage the foot with methodical rolls, presses, or sliding of knuckles and thumbs along the tops, bottoms, and sides of your feet. This helps the body to balance, rejuvenate, repair, detox and increase energy. Most Foot Zones last between 1 – 1 ½ hours.

Why should you try a foot zone?

Because of the environment we live in today, our bodies can become weighed down with chemicals, toxins, pollution, and negative pentup emotions. This often leads to our bodies becoming congested and out-of-balance.
