In Chinese culture, it is believed that our feet are the foundation to good heath and therefore highly cared for because it is seen as the key to the balance of life’s energy, or the Qi, of the human body. Many of the body's nerves are connected through the foot. While we've known this secret in China for thousands of years, it's only been in the last several years that foot reflexology has become such a popular treatment in spas around the country. So naturally, it only makes sense to take great care of them. Not only do our feet feel better but we feel better.
