Reflexology

What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is an ancient therapy that has been around since the Egyptians as early as 2330 BC. Reflexology is a natural healing art based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet and hands that correspond to every part, gland and organ in the body.

Through application of pressure on particular areas of the hands and feet, Reflexology serves to relax tension, improve circulation, promote the natural function of the related area in the body and maintain health. When a reflex point is stimulated, it works to balance and normalise not just the corresponding organ itself, but also all functional relationships of that organ. Reflexology is a scientific system of health care and health maintenance and utilises the connection between nerve endings in the feet and hands with every body part.

There are 7200 nerve endings in the feet and these nerve endings have extensive interconnections through the spinal cord and brain with all areas of the body - it's no wonder Reflexology really works.

The benefits of Reflexology are:
