What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is an alternative health therapy which uses the application of gentle pressure via finger and thumb techniques to the feet, hands or ears. These reflexes in the feet, hands and ears correspond to all glands, organ s and parts of the body. Reflexology works to stimulate the natural healing ability of the body on a physical, emotional /mental, and spiritual level.
Reflexologist’s have sensitive, trained hands that can detect tiny deposits (crystals) and imbalances. By working on these points this pressure can release blockages and restore the free flow of energy to the whole entire body.
The first step to better health is relaxation
The primary benefit of reflexology is a deep state of relaxation, known as the alpha state. Reflexology, due to its deeply relaxing nature, can bring relief directly to the area of the body where tension is held by easing and relieving symptoms. Regular sessions work gently to bring the entire body back to a state of wellness.
With reflexology, relaxation, peace of mind, energy, a body that functions harmoniously and effectively, can be part of everyone’s life.
