For Valentine’s Day, why not give your partner the gift of a soothing, sensual, foot massage. Using the Sexy Love Sox as your guide, you can stimulate the entire foot, and in doing so, the entire body. The following routine will guide you step-by-step through a complete reflexology treatment. I recommend doing this routine to start, and then later you can focus on specific areas of your feet that need particular attention. If you want to experiment and play around with your own routine, just remember that it works best to build anticipation by progressing to the areas of the sexual organs, rather than just starting there. Think of foreplay…
Working the entire foot has its advantages. A benefit of this approach is that you don’t need to develop a vast knowledge of human anatomy and physiology in order to be effective. Since the systems, glands, organs, and parts of the body are all so intricately intertwined in their functioning, thorough stimulation of all of the reflex areas in your feet can effectively reduce stress and tension, creating a space for healing and rejuvenation to occur.
This full-foot routine includes many reflexology techniques, but not all of them. It’s up to you to pick and choose the techniques that will work for you and your partner. Later on, as you learn to locate specific reflex areas to the erogenous zones and tap into your partner’s energy, you’ll be able to tailor your technique, and give the most effective, relaxing yet sexually arousing reflexology session possible.
10-Step Full Body/Full Foot Reflexology Technique
Step 1: Relax. I always begin a reflexology treatment by first washing my hands so that they are clean and clear of any negative energy. Next, relax both yourself and the feet by taking both feet in my hands and just holding them for ten seconds. This helps me direct my focus to the feet and allows my partner to get used to the feeling of my touch. Take a deep breath, count to three, and exhale. If you have the Sexy Love Sox™, then no lotion or oil is necessary. If you want to work directly on the feet, take some lotion or oil and warm it in your hands. Gently spread the lotion or oil over the top of the foot and the sole. Concentrate on the sole and work the lotion in so that there’s only a light layer remaining. This lets your fingers slide with control.
Step 2: Stretch. Bring both hands under the heels and pull back, giving a slight stretch to the lower back.
Step 3: Side to side ankle loosening. Move your hands to one foot and place the outer edges of your hands at the heels. Move your hands from side to side to loosen the entire foot.
Step 4: Ankle Rotations. Bring one hand underneath to support the heel, and rotate the ankle in one direction a couple of times, and then the other.
Step 5: Achilles Tendon Stretch. Gently stretch the toes back to release the arch of the foot, and then bring the toes forward, stretching the top of the foot. Next, flex the foot backward and then pull the toes toward you. Repeat this stretch.
Step 6: Solar Plexus Relaxer. Hold both of your thumbs at the solar plexus point, which is in the middle of the foot. This reflex point can relax and calm the entire body. Press here for 10 seconds, release and repeat.
Step 7: Finger-Walk: neck/shoulder line and up. Beginning at the inner edge of the foot, finger-walk up from the heel to the top of the toes. Bring your thumb back to the heel, move over about 1/4 inch, and again finger-walk up to the top of the toes. Repeat this until you reach the outer edge of the foot. Finger-walking the entire foot will allow you to touch all of the erogenous zones so nothing gets left out. Later, you can go back and focus on specific reflex areas that correspond to the exact erogenous zones you want to target.
Stimulating all the reflex points on both feet can encourage the entire body to come back into balance. Work both feet to treat the entire body. Try to cover every inch of each foot, including the ankle, with this finger-walking technique.
Step 8: Don’t Forget the Toes. Many people find the toes very sensitive. Take each toe, one at a time, between your thumb and index finger, and slowly roll them back and forth. Try to move your fingers around the entire toe so that you stimulate the whole toe. The area between the toes, close to the crease is very sensitive in a lot of people. If your partner enjoys this, spend extra time applying light pressure here.
Step 9: Stimulate Specific Sexy Areas. This is the best part. (Or at least I think so!) Using the Sexy Love Sox as your map, choose the areas that you or your partner think need the most attention and use the “Finger-Pressure” technique to bring awareness and energy to that area. If your partner responds, then change up the technique to include the “V” slide or make small circles with your thumb, staying in this area to promote maximum circulation to this particular erogenous zone.
Play around with each of the erogenous zones to get to know what, how and where your partner likes to be stimulated. After a bit of fun practice and good communication, you’ll be able to really tune in to your partners hidden passions and desires.
**As you work on each area, feel for “grainy” areas or places where the feet are tender. By discovering grainy or tender areas, you are clued in to energy blockages and potential “problem areas.” This allows you to focus on areas of the body that may need the most help.
Step 10: Happy Ending: Feathering. Finish by lightly brushing your fingertips from the top of the toes to the feel, several times, on both feet. At this point, you can even remove the Sexy Love Sox and do this with bare feet so that you have real skin-to-skin contact. Or, leave the Sexy Love Sox on if you choose.
In this day and age, who isn’t anxious once in a while? It’s a chaotic world, and it’s often hard to let go and really relax. Unfortunately, stress is very damaging to our entire system and most doctors agree that over 75% of our health problems can be linked to stress. When we’re stressed, our body’s defense mechanism begins to break down, making us more susceptible to illness and disease.
