With a modern lifestyle, our bodies are constantly bombarded by toxicity from poor air quality, stress at work, fatigue and more. Yet given a chance to restore balance, our bodies have the ability to maintain a healing environment within.

Reflexology is a non-invasive pressure massage technique for the feet and hands that restores balance to the entire body.

This is a holistic way to promote self-healing.

Nagging aches and pains take their toll on your body causing fatigue and sometimes emotional issues result.

Reflexology promotes relaxation and can help reduce those small aches and pains.

It is proven to help with arthritis, asthma and help alleviate many symptoms caused by disease.

Improving circulation can help restore your body's natural balance. After an injury we tend to favour the injured area and our healthy body can suffer. It's one thing to treat the injury but what about the rest of you? For the body to fully heal there must be balance in all areas.

Reflexology improves circulation and helps stabilize each system so the body functions as a whole and brings healing to all areas of the body.

More about Reflexology

Originally known in western society as Zone Therapy, Reflexology is an ancient holistic method of gentle pressure and massage of the feet to stimulate pathways leading throughout the body. Egyptians used reflexology to relieve everyday symptoms affecting the health and promoting well-being. Today there is scientific study showing the benefits of reflexology. 

The feet, hands and ears have reflex points (nerve endings) that correspond to areas throughout the entire body. When stimulated by touch and pressure the reflex points regulate and provide balance to enhance healing and promote relaxation.

The foot is mapped to correspond with reflex points all over the body.

The toes represent the brain and head including sinuses, eyes and ears. Ball of the foot corresponds to the chest, heart and lung area. Middle of foot pertains to organs and intestinal areas. The heel deals with hips, pelvis and sacrum area.

Alongside the inner foot, from base of the big toe to the ankle is the spine reflex. This reflex area divides into sections depicting the Cervical, Thoracic, and Lumbar vertebrae.

Charting involves all areas of the feet; top, bottom, sides, ankle and is more complex than the general description shown here.

Even when reflexology is used merely as a stress relief tool, the benefits are plenty

Reflexology releases stress, improves blood circulation and restores vitality and well-being. In other words, the body is in balance and harmony, creating a good environment for continued healing. 

The immediate benefit of foot reflexology is relaxation.
From the moment treatment begins you are compelled to relax and de-stress.
Close your eyes and release into a sensation of comfort.

Some people may have sensitivity toward a specific area or not notice any difference at all.
Reflexology does help in a gentle, holistic and non-invasive manner.

Just as it takes time to come unbalanced, time is also required to encourage the body gently back to a state of well-being. Continued treatment is oftentimes necessary for the body to return to healthy balance.

Another benefit of reflexology is improved circulation. Even when helping specific symptoms, treating the entire foot removes blockages thereby improving blood flow throughout the body.  

Although reflexology is safe for people of all ages, there is caution for those suffering from phlebitis or blood clots. Treatment could dislodge a clot causing a potentially serious to blockage elsewhere.

It is always good advice to ask your doctor about specific problems you may be having. Reflexology is holistic health care and not all medical professionals feel it is plausible. Use their recommendations according to your personal health issues but do not let them make up your mind about reflexology. 

A well-trained Reflexologist will ask about your medical health background. This will assist them in treating your health issues on a personal level.
