What is Reflexology?

reflexology

Reflexology is well rooted in history having been used by many ancient cultures up to 5000 years ago. It works on the principle that the body and all of its organs are mirrored to associated reflexes on the feet (and hands). These areas are worked by a form of compression massage, which clears blockages or imbalances along the ten energy channels that run through the body and terminate in the feet. By clearing blockages along these pathways, the body can use its own healing mechanisms to return well-being to the person. The treatment is soothing and deeply relaxing and should not be ticklish or painful.

You do not have to be sick to enjoy the benefits of reflexology. Regular reflexology can help maintain your precious good health by relaxing the body, calming the nervous system and allowing you to face life's challenges with new feelings of self awareness and calm.

What will it do for me?

  • help to cleanse your body of toxins and impurities

  • it can highlight a problem in your body areas or systems, which appear as energy blockages, which the therapist can then work to free up and rebalance, allowing your body to heal itself naturally
