Reflexology is a complementary therapy founded on the premise that the feet (and hands and ears) have areas of reflex and zones which correspond directly to all parts of the body. Physically manipulating these reflexes – applying pressure to specific points – results in stress reduction causing physiological changes in the body, and allowing the body to heal itself. Session benefits include improvements in cardiovascular health, deep relaxation, sleep, concentration and mental clarity, as well as the release of emotional wounds.
