1. Hold the bottom of the foot with both
hands. Begin rubbing the top of the foot,
slowly working your way down to the sole.
Apply more pressure as you get closer to the
sole. Reverse directions and rub the foot
moving slowly towards the top, reducing
pressure as you go.
2. Rub the heel of the foot. Use your
thumbs for this, making small circles with
medium to heavy pressure. Work your way
around the entire heel. Repeat this action on
the ball of the foot.
3. Use cross-fiber friction on the heels of the
feet. This means you use your thumbs to push
up and down on the heel. While one thumb is
pushing up, the other should be pushing down.
4. Massage around the ankle bone. Use
both hands to rub in a circular motion around
the bone on either side and gently rub your
fingers over the top of the bone.

5. Use a fist to massage the arch of the foot.
With your hand closed in a fist, use the tips of
your fingers to apply pressure to the arch. Roll
your hand back and forth to knead the skin
gently.
6. Massage the toes. Spend time on each toe
Go to each toe and gently pull on it. This
may cause the joint to pop, but unless it
causes the person discomfort, continue
to do this to each toe.
Slide your index finger in the gap
between each toe. Spend time moving it
back and forth, rubbing the base of each
toe with your index and thumb if desired.
1. Apply the milking stroke. To do this, hold
the foot in both hands and give ten short, strong
pulls on one side and then the other. Imagine
the pulling motion of milking a cow while doing
this.
2. Use the Indian rub technique. Hold the side of
the foot with both thumbs placed on the inside
center of the arch. Move your hands back and
forth as if you were wringing out a wet towel. Allow
a lot of movement of the foot while applying this
technique.

 3. Try petrissage on the Achilles tendon and
lower foot. Petrissage is a type of massage
that involves lifting and squeezing muscles to
stimulate them.

Starting at the back of the heel and ankle

https://www.scribd.com/document/348226
802/Final-LM-in-Beauty-Care-pdf
around the Achilles tendon, use one hand to
gently squeeze and pull the foot. Start
softly, but apply more pressure and speed
the longer you do it.

Push the muscles starting at the Achilles

tendon and working towards the toes. Doing
this will lift the muscles of the foot, helping
to work out impurities.

4. Massage the long muscle of the foot. The

long muscle begins near the Achilles tendon and
ends at the knee, and is closely tied to
muscle movements in the foot.

vertically, and use your forearm to apply
pressure downward into the foot. Slowly
move your arm to use your elbow to apply
more pressure into the foot.

5. Perform ankle rotations. Hold the foot up,

and use one hand to rotate the foot around the
ankle. Move the foot in circles ten times in one
direction, and then ten times in the opposite
direction. The ankle joints may pop, but unless
this causes the person any discomfort there
is no need to stop.
