Sometimes a headache is all in your head. Relax. ~ Hartman Jule

Here are some tips how to do self-help foot massage. You can also try it for or with your partner which can be very romantic. My husband is very relaxed and happy if I give him a foot massage after his stressful day at work.

Start by gently rubbing the base of your first (little) toe. Continue at the base of the second toe. Next, apply slight pressure between the first and second toes. Then, rub between the third and forth toe. Next, massage, stretch and pull the big toe gently and rub each side of the nails. Finally, massage the ball of your foot in a circular motion, followed by circling around your ankle joint with both hands in a clockwise motion.

This simple massage improves circulation and the energy level of the body. Repeat the same steps on your other foot. You can do this foot massage in the evening, a couple of times a week to give your tired feet a break.f

Foot massage also might help:

* Weight Loss:
