The benefits of walking barefoot on pebbles

Walking barefoot on pebbles is equivalent to massaging your feet, which is a very good way to keep fit. We know that the soles of the feet correspond to the internal organs of the human body. By massaging the soles of the feet, it can promote the improvement of immunity, promote blood circulation in the body, and promote the strengthening of the body's metabolic capacity. It is a very good way to keep fit, which can prolong life and improve immunity.

The benefits of walking barefoot on pebbles

1. Promote blood circulation throughout the body

Although the feet are called our second heart, they are the limbs farthest from our heart, and their blood circulation ability is relatively weaker than other parts. But also because there are many acupoints on the soles of the feet, walking barefoot on pebbles can constantly stimulate these acupoints, which greatly improves the blood circulation of the soles of the feet, promotes our blood flow, and can ensure the normal circulation of blood.

2. Enhance immunity

Walking barefoot on pebbles will create pressure on the soles of the feet. Massaging acupoints can mobilize various functions of the body, stimulate the potential of body organs, and achieve the effect of enhancing one's own immunity.

3. Improve body balance and coordination

Walking barefoot on the relatively uneven cobblestone road can increase the contact between the soles of the feet and the ground. Walking on this kind of road can give the human body's vestibular system sufficient exercise. About 70% of the body's balance depends on the vestibular system to maintain. Therefore, walking on cobblestones frequently can improve one's balance and coordination.

4. Strengthen the body and cure diseases

According to the research results of the Oregon Research Institute in the United States, through surveys and sampling of multiple volunteers, people who often walk barefoot on cobblestones can better regulate their blood pressure.

The following four types of people should not take the "healthy path"

1. Patients with Parkinson's disease, impaired cerebellar balance function, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, etc., cannot perform such exercises because they cannot control their steps.

2. For patients with more serious hip and knee joint diseases, due to the lack of joint flexibility, uneven roads will increase the load on the joints and aggravate joint damage.

3. For people who have been bedridden for a long time or immobilized for a long time due to limb injuries, it may be dangerous to do this kind of exercise when they just start to practice walking because of the lack of lower limb muscle strength.

4. People who have lower limb muscle weakness due to nervous system diseases should not do this exercise.
