Best Foot Massages near me in Genova, Genoa, Italy

A foot massage focuses on relieving tension and relaxing the muscles of the feet and calves. Reflexology is a specific therapeutic technique that maps points on the feet to organs and body systems, using targeted pressure to influence overall health and wellbeing.

It depends on the degree of muscle tension in your feet. There are more than 200,000 nerve endings in your feet, so a foot massage can trigger a range of sensations, including discomfort.

It depends on your treatment goals. A foot massage helps to reduce muscle tension and improve circulation; reflexology is more holistic. In reflexology, specific parts of the foot are thought to correspond to different organs and systems in the body, so practitioners place pressure on particular areas of the feet to treat a range of internal health complaints including nausea, sinusitis and cardiovascular issues. If you're in doubt which one to have, ask your therapist.
