Pāda-abhyaṅga — foot focus
Foot oiling / grounding proxy
The foot focus records pāda-abhyaṅga, the specifically named foot-oiling practice, and serves as the grounding terminus of the visual circuit. It is a target-organ projection of an oil-and-region classification, not a claim about a foot-to-organ reflex map or a guaranteed outcome.

Caraka Saṃhitā (primary_canonical)
Sūtrasthāna 5 explicitly discusses oiling the feet in the daily regimen; the single front-view foot point is an editorial proxy.
Suśruta Saṃhitā (primary_canonical)
Śārīrasthāna 6 classifies foot and sole vital regions among the marmas; the overlay keeps the oiling focus adjacent to that classification rather than equating the two.
