Therapy details - Reflexology

Reflexology is the technique of  applying gentle pressure to the feet (or hands), using the thumb and fingers, in order to bring about a state of deep relaxation, stimulate the body's own healing processes and help create a sense of well-being.

Reflexology is based on the principle that there are reflex points on the feet and hands that relate to all the major organs, glands and body parts. These points are known as reflexes. The feet (or hands) can be thought of as mirroring the body and so the organs and glands etc. can be mapped onto the feet. The left foot mirrors the left side of the body and the right foot reflects the right side of the body. Light pressure is used to work each of the points on the toes, feet and ankles to release tension, remove energy blockages, release any toxins, stimulate the circulation of blood and lymph, and promote healing of both body and mind.
