Reflexology works on the principle that there are reflex points in the feet that relate to every organ, gland and area of the body. Reflexologists use thumb and finger pressure to stimulate these points, which will have a corresponding balancing and revitalising effect on the area being treated.
Reflexology is an holistic approach, treating the whole person, rather than specific symptoms. It has many beneficial effects, including improvement in blood circulation and nerve function, elimination of toxins and relief of stress and tension. It stimulates the natural healing process and assists the body to achieve a balanced state of working.
It is one of the most successful methods of treating stress and can assist with many conditions, including headaches, neck and back problems, digestive disorders, fluid retention, hormonal imbalances and many others.
