The best massage chairs perform foot reflexology massages right in the comfort of home. Get relief from stress while feeling good with a massage chair recliner.

The art of reflexology has advanced with modern technology. From the beginning of time, people practiced massage therapy. Many ancient societies noticed that there were correlations between applying pressure on the feet in hands and relief of discomfort in certain organs. By applying pressure in certain areas of the feet, pain and discomfort was relieved in other parts of the body. These areas have been thoroughly mapped and now they are known as reflexology points.

Dr. Fitzgerald went on to map out these zones and created the first modern reflexology charts. A foot massage uses certain strokes to relax the feet and the individual. However, foot reflexology helps to increase the health and well being of the entire body. As foot reflexology is applied, healing of other parts of the body began. Sometimes, the healing was spontaneous, but more often, the healing takes periodic treatments to sustain.

The feet are tied to your stress and anxiety. What physically happens when you are stressed? Stress increases the energy in your body through the nervous system. The nervous system reacts to protect the body. This release activates the hands and feet to be ready for action. The major organs become more energized to support the action of the hands and feet. They work in tandem. Reflexology helps to reverse this process and reduce the tension. Remember most stress is mental and does not require the mobilization of the physical defenses.

The Panasonic Real Pro Ultra and the Omega Montage Premier massage chair both offer reflexology foot massage. These reflexology massages use air compression massage. The air system will gently squeeze, hold and then release your feet. This gentle action helps to relieve tension in the feet. Additionally, reflexology nodes are built into the foot wells to induce full body relaxation. These massage chair recliners are effective in helping you to relax.

Foot Reflexology massage has a lot of potential benefits, however, one important finding is that the benefits were a result of continuous applications. In other words, getting a foot reflexology massage once a year will not have much sustained effect. The reason for this is that stress is continuous. Therefore, stress relief must be applied on a continuous basis to counteract the build up of stress.

If you have stress and built up anxiety, get a massage chair recliner to counteract the stress build up. The best massage chairs have full body massage capability along with foot reflexology massage. These chairs can provide the perfect way to reduce these tensions on a frequent basis. Besides just making your feet feel good after a hard day, a foot reflexology massage induces stress relief and total relaxation. Reduce your stress with the touch of a button on a massage chair.
