Keep Walking

Keep Walking..... 

The Organs of your body have their sensory
touches at the bottom of your foot,
if you massage these points you will find relief
from aches and pains
as you can see the heart is on the left foot.

Typically they are shown as points and arrows
to show which organ it connects to.

It is indeed correct since the nerves connected
to these organs terminate here.

This is covered in great details in Acupressure studies
or textbooks.

God created our body so well that he
thought of even this.
He made us walk so that we will always
be pressing these pressure points and thus
keeping these organs activated at all times.

So, keep walking.... 

Thanks Keralites.net.
