Dating back thousands of years, foot massage has served as a therapeutic tool for cultures all over the world. A foot massage is deeply relaxing, and benefits the entire body – not just the feet. Ancient theory maintains that areas of the foot correspond to areas of the

wellness.

Techniques of foot massage. Students will learn a one hour sequence of Thai Foot massage, which is the “ultimate” in relaxation. Topics include:
