REFLEXOLOGY

Reflexology is a focused pressure technique, directed at the feet or hands. It is based on the premise that there are zones and reflexes on different parts of the body which corresponds to and are relative to all parts, glands and organs of the entire body.

How does it work?

​

There are different theories about the exact way that reflexology works, but the main concept is that different areas of the feet are linked to specific areas in the body; and that putting pressure on one area of the foot can have an effect on the area that it corresponds with.

 

One theory suggests that your body contains “vital energy” that is affected by stress. If you don’t work to relieve the stress, your body may not work as well as it should, which may lead to aches or illness. Reflexology is thought to help you maintain the flow of vital energy through your body.

Reflexology triggers relaxation, resulting in reduced levels of stress and tension.

Reflexology is ancient practice. It is thought to have been passed down through tradition, and possibly first recorded as a pictograph on the Egyptian tomb of Ankhamor in 2330 BC along with other medical procedures. Reflexology symbols are thought to be recorded on the feet of statues of Buddha in India, and later China.

At some point, you might feel so relaxed that you fall asleep, or you could feel a rush of emotions as energy moves through your body. Afterward, you may feel energized or have a sense of calm. Many people describe a profound sense of relaxation and increased energy following their session. In addition, specific studies indicate that reflexology may reduce pain and anxiety.
