Reflexology

Most people think of reflexology as a pampering foot massage,

but it is so much more than that.

It is a holistic therapy for body and mind, as well as for the feet.

Reflexology is based on the principle that there are reflex areas on the feet which correspond to all organs glands and parts of the body. In fact, the entire body and all its systems are mapped out on the feet. Applying pressured stimulation with the hands to these reflex points may help restore and maintain the body's natural balance. This in turn creates a feeling of vitality, relaxation and well-being.

There are hundreds of nerve endings in the feet which run alongside energy pathways throughout the body, and through stimulation of these nerve endings is one way that we believe reflexology works.

The trained hands of a reflexologist can detect tiny deposits in the feet which may indicate imbalances within the body and its energy systems; so working these points may help to release blockages and help restore the free flow of energy, helping to induce the body's natural healing ability; physically, emotionally and mentally.

Regular reflexology treatments may help the body deal with the effects of stress, injury and disease, as tension, congestion and possible disease can be mirrored in the feet.
