Reflexology

Reflexology is a gentle and non-intrusive treatment done on the feet. Reflexology does not use lotion. It works by pressing the reflex points all over the feet that correspond to the body parts and vital organs. By starting a massage therapy treatment with 20 minutes of reflexology, the feet identify areas of the body that need extra attention. This combined treatment is incredibly relaxing with a deeper healing and thorough massage treatment.

There are several theories of reflexology: The meridian theory comes from Traditional Chinese Medicine where stagnant chi can be released from meridians by pressing acupressure points on the feet; the zone theory divides the body into 10 zones and pressure applied in one part of the body can anesthetize another; and the nerve theory believes that reflexology stimulates the nerve endings in the feet.

While working your feet, I feel sandy or bumpy painful areas on your feet. These areas are sometimes painful when pressed, but the pain diminishes after a few presses. While working your feet, I can tell you which corresponding body part is being stimulated.

Reflexology helps with many ailments including Arthritis, Asthma, anxiety, back pain, constipation, depression, Eczema, fluid retention, head aches, high blood pressure, Irritable bowel syndrome, menopausal problems, period pains, post natal problems and sinusitis.

Overall, Reflexology reduces stress and induces deep relaxation, improves circulation and lymph flow, cleanses the body of impurities, creates homeostasis (a natural balance within the body), revitalizes energy and aids concentration. You'll have the best sleep of your life after your treatment.
