Contrary to what some people think, Reflexology is NOT a foot massage. Reflexology is both a beautiful art and a science. As a healing art, reflexology yeilds the best results when the reflexologist works with dedication, patience, and focused intention. As a science, the practice requires a careful study, faithful practice, a sound knowledge of the technique, and skill.
Reflexology is a technique that uses pressure (applied by thumbs, fingers and knuckles) to reflex points on the soles of the feet and palms of the hands. In theory, this pressure stimulates "energy" or nerve impulses to the corresponding organ or organ system.
In one 1 hour session, energy is encouraged to stimulate and balance the whole body system bringing about Homeostasis or "harmony" throughout the body.
There are many benefits of Reflexology, here are just a few:
Reduces stress and induces deep relaxation
Improves circulation
Can assist the body in releases toxin and impurities
Brings balance to the whole body systems
Revitalizes energy
