How to Give a Girl a Foot Massage
- 1). Pour warm water into a large tub, bucket or bathtub. Add Epsom salt according to the product's directions and a few drops of eucalyptus or other aromatherapeutic oil. Have the woman soak her feet in the solution for 10 minutes or so. Dry off her feet with a towel, suggests learnfootmassage.com.
- 2). Stretch the first foot you will massage. Hold onto her toes, and press the top of the foot gently downward so that the toes point. Press her toes gently upward again so that the foot flexes. Repeat this stretch a few times.
- 3). Put a quarter-sized squirt of lotion or massage oil in your palms. Rub your hands together to warm up the lotion. Rub the lotion into the foot you just stretched, covering the top of the foot, heel and arch. Glide your hands up and down over the foot to warm it up before applying pressure.
- 4). Hold the bottom of her left foot in both hands with your thumbs over the top of the foot. Run your thumbs up and down the foot in a long, stroking motion by starting at the toes and moving your thumbs toward the ankle. Pull your thumbs back toward the toes again as you reach the ankle. Decrease the amount of pressure you use as you approach the toes as this area can be sensitive. Repeat this technique on the bottom of the foot by moving your thumbs and stroking from the ball of the foot down to the heel, says Reflexology Wisconsin.
- 5). Hold on to the middle of the foot with both hands and move it from side to side to loosen the ankle joint. Hold the toes and ankle, and turn the foot clockwise and counterclockwise.
- 6). Hold her left foot in one hand, and massage the sole with your thumb. Apply pressure with your thumb, then roll your thumb back and forth. Start under the big toe and move toward the pinkie toe.
- 7). Hold the left foot in one hand. Bend your fingers at the second joint and fold them over into your palm. Press on the sole of the left foot with your fingers' second joints by applying pressure and rotating your fingers as if you are kneading dough.
- 8). Repeat the steps above for the right foot.
