Question

pressure points on feet that affect different organs and parts of the body(massotherepy)

Answer 1

I couldn't find a chart, but here's a description -- which might be enough. I got this from the http://naturalhealthtechniques.com site.

Reflexology Points: The Law of Correspondence:



The inside curves of the foot correspond to the curves of the spine with the toe being the top of the spine and the back of the heal corresponding to the sacrum. When the back of the heel is worn down on a person's shoe, this is an indication that they might have sciatic pain.



The tips of each toe represent the head area- specifically the brain.



The big toe represents the brain and all the glands the head contains. Sometimes when women wear high heels, they squish the toes which, in turn, decreases the blood flow to the head and gives the person a headache.



The second and third toes correspond to the ears, eyes, and sinuses.



The balls of the feet correspond to the chest and lungs. The heart rests in the center between the balls of the feet.



The arch of the foot corresponds to the internal organs.

The kidney (very center of the foot) and bladder points (just before the heel and on the inside edge of the foot) are more centrally located. This is often a tender area. Be gently and vary the pressure and technique until the patient can handle your touch and relax into it. Many people protect this area by walking on the outside heel.

The intestines surround the kidney and bladder and comprise most the arch.



The beginning of the heal corresponds to the upper part of the pelvic area.



The inner line of the foot from toe to heel corresponds to the spine.



The outer line of the foot from little toe to heel corresponds to the arm, shoulder, hip leg, knee, and lower back.



The ankle corresponds to the pelvic and reproductive organs.



The Achilles' tendon corresponds to the female reproductive organs or prostate. Massage this from the foot towards the heart to guide the blood and lymph back to the heart.
