IPOH: The order is out for the authorities to come down hard on reflexology centres here which are being used as a front offering sexual services.
Perak Local Government Committee chairman Datuk Dr Mah Hang Soon said regular spot checks would be conducted on the centres to ensure they adhered to rules and regulations.
“We have received complaints from housewives asking us to keep an eye on these centres,” he told reporters here yesterday after chairing a meeting on local councils at the state secretariat building.
He said the state had instructed all local councils to tighten its licensing requirements for such centres and was not contemplating to bar foreign women from working in such centres.
Dr Mah said regular checks were conducted on 58 registered reflexology centres in the city but none were found offering sexual services.
He told local councils not to hesitate to revoke their operating licenses if they failed to adhere to rules and regulations.
On a different matter, Dr Mah said he had requested for a racial breakdown of personnel working in local councils.
“I asked all local council chairman at the meeting to have more officers and personnel from various races in their office.
“I hope the composition is in line with the 1Malaysia slogan,” he said.
Dr Mah also said that the one-stop-centres in all local councils in the state fared better than the national average.
“While the national figure is 90.2%, the councils in Perak achieved 95.7%,” he added.
NOTE: ONLY healthy and legal businesses will have no worries on this issue. Following the rules and laws is the first priority. Do not engage in illegal services.

Relief your stresses with foot massage
Ten steps for foot massage

Step 3 - Start rubbing at the base of your little toe.
Step 4 - Move to the base of the next toe and continue rubbing.

Great article on the foot reflexology by Ninnart
History of Foot Massage
The foot reflexology massage's history dates back to the reign of Emperor Wendi but its most flourishing period was in the Tang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.). Later, the foot reflexology massage was spread into Japan. Yet, there were some specialists in China who did not pass their knowledge to others or did not make any written records. This resulted in the degeneration of this art of healing. Fortunately, the foot reflexology massage was brought to the Western countries when more and more Westerners started to get in touch with the Chinese around the late Manchu Dynasty (1643-1912 A.D.).
Then in 1913, Dr. William Fitzgerald, an American doctor, wrote an article about foot reflexology massage. He developed a systematized chart of longitudinal zones in the body. The 10 zones, ending in the fingers and toes, illustrated reflex areas with their corresponding connections, as well as physical conditions influenced by the connection. Fitzgerald discovered that pressure on one part of a zone could affect other parts of the body within that zone. That's how this ancient modality was restored in the Western countries. And it was V. M. Bechterev, a Russian physiologist who coined the term "reflexology".
Afterwards, Fitzgerald's zone theory was further studied by Dr. Shelly Riley who added horizontal zones across the hands and feet to determine individual reflexes. After that, Eunice Ingham, a physical therapist and associate of Riley, refined the zone therapy into therapeutic foot reflexology through full scale researches with hundreds of clients. She made an anatomical model in which the organs of the body were mapped out on the feet. Her findings, published in 1938, resulted in more precise identification of reflex points and gave us the framework of foot reflexology as it is known today.
