REFLEXOLOGY

Introduction

Reflexology is a very simple and non-invasive treatment which helps the body to maintain a delicate balance between the nine systems of the body. It is also a method for achieving the healing powers of the body. Reflexology dates back to the ancient times, to the Egyptians, Indians, Russians as well as others. They treat their feet to help keep them in good health.

How it works

Reflexology is a specific pressure technique that is applied to the hands and feet. There are ‘reflex points’ on our hands and feet that mirror all the organs and structures of our bodies. By applying pressure to these ‘reflex points’ reflexologists can bring about the following:

• Reduce stress.
• Induce deep relaxation.
• Improve circulation.
• Cleanse the body of toxins.
• Balance the whole system.
• Revitalise the bodies energy levels.
• Boost the immune system.
• Help to relieve the body of pain.

Lifestyles

Due to the busy/hectic/stressful lifestyles that we lead, our bodies can suffer ill health as a result. We require good health to maintain balance, equilibrium and natural functioning of our bodily systems. Too much stress disrupts the balance of the body causing energy pathways to become congested, disabling the energy (chi/prana) to travel freely throughout
our bodies. Reflexology is able to help this problem by releasing the congested areas of our body, allowing this energy to flow freely, also bringing balance to our body. Reflexology treats the body as a whole - mind (psychological), Body (physical) and spirit (spiritual). That is why it is known as ‘Holistic Therapy’.
