Foot Massage

Massage is popular in Taipei and one of the most popular types is foot massage.
One of concepts underneath, is that different areas on the bottom of the foot effects a corresponding part of the rest of the body.
What I find interesting is that although the feet are symmetrical, the body above the feet is unsymmetrical. So each foot corresponds to different parts of the body.
But it seems that each massage establishment has its own layout.
If you don't read Chinese, this version of the corresponding layout is universal.
And there seems to be a similar layout for hands as well as feet.
On one of bus rides, the in bus display was testing it LED message display or maybe it was advertising for massage.

  1. Have you tried a foot massage? I have heard of foot reflexology. Does it work? I always enjoy a foot massage, but don't think about it's effects on the rest of my body.
