REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology is a technique which can benefit all ages, from very young babies to the elderly. It involves applying gentle pressure to parts of the feet, which correspond to precise reflex points in the body. It revolves around the understanding that there are over 7,000 nerve endings, or reflex points on each of the feet that relate to the tissues, organs and systems of the body.
Applying gentle pressure to these reflex points may influence the body in many ways. For example, reflexology has been found to reduce stress and tension, relieve pain, improve bodily functions. It also helps to detox the system, boosts the immune system and acts as a good prevention against illness. It therefore helps to stimulate the body's own healing abilities bringing it back into natural balance, and overall improving physical well being.
