flow in the tissues of the foot.
Grasp the foot with one hand and
stroke the top with the other. You can use light pressure along the top of the
foot. Moderate pressure might be required on the bottom of the foot to prevent
tickling your partner.
Continue rubbing and stroking your
partners entire foot. Twenty times on the top and ten times on the bottom is
nice.
The next step is to rotate the foot.
When you are doing this, only slight movement is necessary. This move is not a stretch; it is just a
movement to relax the foot and ankle.
Support the foot with one hand.
With the other hand, gently move the foot through its natural range of motion.
Do not push firmly. Simply and slowly glide the foot in an oval-type motion. As
you slowly rotate the foot, you may find the range of motion increases
slightly.
Rotate the foot 3-5 times in each
direction.
Then you need to stroke the foot.
This type of stroke won’t relax just the feet; it will relax the whole
body.
Start with your fingertips right where the toes meet he foot. Use both
hands to press down between the bones of the foot. Slide your up the foot
toward the ankle, when your fingers reach ankle level, wrap your fingers around
the ankle and massage the front of the ankle joint with your thumbs.
You should generally look for
muscle tissue to rub when giving a massage. This area is firm with bone,
tendons and ligaments. Try to do your best to treat the muscle tissue you find
with thorough kneading.
The next step is to flex and rotate the bones of
the foot. This stroke feels really nice
when the top of the foot is
