Reflexology
What Is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a Complementary Therapy based on the principle that the whole body is mapped on a person's feet (or hands). This means that if you treat the feet you are in effect treating the whole body. It is a holistic therapy, in that, it not only treats a particular system or problem, it treats the whole body as well. It may be used for many health conditions.
How does it work?
Your feet are particularly sensitive part of your body and have thousands of nerve endings. These nerve endings send messages, back and forth, to all parts of your body.
So a trained reflexologist "feels" your feet and senses any problem areas. Then by applying pressure to the correct areas on your feet, the reflexologist stimulates the corresponding part of the body, helping to restore any imbalances.
