Stress Relief and Relaxation
Two of the most popular reasons for buying a foot massager are stress relief and relaxation. They go hand-in-hand. From the moment you start using a foot massager, such as Lifepro’s VibraCare, you get all the benefits of a regular massage, including stress relief, from the comfort of home. The foot massager’s vibrations create soothing feelings throughout the foot, which can ease stress and perk you up within a matter of seconds.
And that’s not even including the pain relief you’ll feel with a massager. With Lifepro’s Vibracare, you'll experience foot pain relief in a matter of minutes. There’s no easier to way relieve stress on your feet, relax, and enjoy a convenient foot massage.
Increases Blood Circulation
There is also some preliminary evidence that a foot massage can improve blood circulation. Healthy blood circulation helps maintain your muscular health and improve healing. This is especially important for athletes, as a foot massage can help you loosen up after a long run or hard workout session.
When combined with proper stretching, a foot massager goes a long way towards improving muscle recovery and getting more out of your workout. For the amount of effort that goes into using a foot massager, this is a no-brainer!
Better Sleep
Vibration, and in turn the use of a foot massager, may in fact help you get better sleep so that you have more energy throughout the day. According to a study, patients who had undergone vibration stimulation (very similar to a foot massager) experienced a steep increase in sleep quality, as well as a large decrease in the severity of Insomnia.
In the context of using a foot massager, it stands to reason that simply using a foot massager helps you relax. The soothing and relaxing sensations make it easier to fall asleep. And when it’s easier to fall asleep, your sleep quality tends to improve.
Natural Pain Relief
Whether it be from working all day or from extensive exercise, foot pain or discomfort is often a common fact of life. Luckily, a foot massager is an excellent tool to eliminate foot pain. From the moment the massager’s vibrations hit your feet, you’ll start feeling more relaxed and the pain slowly begins to subside.
This is, of course, not a substitute for other injury management techniques such as icing or physical therapy (for more severe injury). However, a good foot massager works wonders for dealing with the foot pain itself.
Anxiety Feelings Get Decreased
Almost 40 million Americans suffer from anxiety. That’s roughly 18% of the population! That also doesn’t take into account minor anxiety that almost everyone will go through from time to time. There are all kinds of ways to treat anxiety, but one of the easiest and most natural ways to relieve anxiety is with a foot massager.
Anxiety often manifests itself through tension and knots around the body, including the feet. Using a foot massager will help get rid of the tension and loosen those knots. This, in turn, plays a large role in anxiety reduction. As such, sometimes the easiest way to get rid of that pent-up anxiety is to use a massager.
Final Thoughts
Foot massagers have many different uses and all of them are beneficial! Whether you’re recovering from pain, simply want to relax and enjoy a massage, or want to get over a long day on your feet – a foot massager might be just what you need!
When you consider all the benefits and that a foot massage will normally cost around $50 an hour, it’s clear that the value of a foot massager goes a long way. Unlike many other forms of massage, you can use a foot massage while watching TV, working at your desk, or just sitting outside enjoying a nice day. There’s no reason not to use a foot massager. They work wonders!
