reflexology

reflexologyReflexology is a complementary therapy that treats the whole body by using a series of massage strokes, stimulating certain reflex points (thought to be derived from the acupuncture system) usually located in the feet, occasionally on the hands and ears. It is thought that by gently releasing these points stimulates the body’s self-healing responses to occur.

In reflexology it is thought that specific areas on the feet relate to specific areas on the body. The massage treatment follows a tried and successful pattern working through the systems, such as respiratory, digestive, skeletal, endocrine, muscular etc. Finding any imbalances which have occurred and gently working them to re-maintain the body’s natural balance by restoring and clearing critical energy pathways that flow in the body. It is certainly a very relaxing experience. Reflexology is an unobtrusive massage technique that is enjoyed by many people. Even if you have ticklish feet you can still enjoy reflexology!
