This is a powerful and ancient therapy involving massage to specific pressure points on the feet via thousands of nerve endings. Stimulation to these points allows an insight into the health of the inner body. It activates the body’s own healing mechanisms, improves the circulation, increases the removal of wastes and toxins, and induces a state of deep relaxation.
Reflexology treats the whole person and therefore most people benefit from treatment. Reflexology detects imbalances, tension and congestion in the body. The therapist will use a variety of techniques to put pressure on reflex points. During the treatment the patient will feel many sensations when different parts of the foot are worked on. Congested areas may feel uncomfortable but as the area is treated this disappears. Many people experience a feeling of lightness and relaxation after a treatment with a renewal of energy.
