Side Effects of Foot Massagers
Foot massage is a great way of relieving many health complications, and ensuring that the flow of blood and oxygen in different parts of the feet is at its best. You will feel re-energized and the pain you previously felt in the feet will all be gone. However, foot massage may lead to side effects and all that you can do is to concentrate on the gains preceding out of the massage since the side effects will go in only a few days. The following are the side effects that may result out of the use of foot massagers:

• Flu-like symptoms: massage helps in the expulsion of toxin from the body and as a result, you will experience some flu-like symptoms which will be gone in two days. If the condition does not improve after a few days, get medical help.
• Extreme tiredness: You may feel tired after a foot massage which may be associated with minor a headache. This will go away after a while and you will feel much better.
• Sensitivity of the feet or tenderness: This condition will only last for a while and can be taken care of by taking a short walk or putting your feet in warm water.
• Nausea
• Sweating
• Mild rashes on the skin surrounding the feet.
• Frequent urination
• Frequent bowel movement

The frequent urinating and bowel movement is as a result of the body’s efforts to expel the toxins that were released into the bloodstream after the massage. You should take a lot of water to ensure that the process of toxins removal is successfully carried out. If you fail to hydrate, the toxins will lead to health complications as the liver will not be able to remove the toxins.
If the side effects do not go away after two days, you should seek medical help as it could be a sign of severe dehydration. Take a lot of fruit juices and water to help you stay hydrated as this will aid in getting rid of the side effects.
