Reflexology is a natural, holistic therapy, which is carried out on the feet or hands. Reflexology is used to promote a feeling of well being and is suitable for people of all ages.
Reflexology is based on the idea that the feet are mini maps of the body and that there are points or reflexes on the feet and hands, which relate to the vital organs, glands or structures of the body. For example, the big toe represents the head and at the base of the big toe is the area or reflex for the neck.
When these reflexes or areas are worked on during treatment it is possible to help the energy or 'chi' flow more freely through the body which in turn allows the body to function more efficiently. Without treatment, we are more prone to viruses, colds, headaches and more. |
