Your feet, the bottom of the feet to be precise, have some access points that are believed to be connected to your organs. According to Chinese medicine, these access points in your feet are known as meridians that are closely related with your nervous system. The nerves present at the bottom of the feet act as a great electrical circuit within the body but they often become dormant when we wear shoes.
