What Is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a science based on a principle that reflexes or areas of the feet, hands or ears relate to the internal organs and other structures in the body.

 

It is a specialised form of massage used in these areas, using forefinger and thumb, leading to better functioning of the circulatory system, as blood flow is improved, thereby taking nutrients to the appropriate parts more efficiently.  Blood and nerve supply improves aiding healing and balance within the body.

 

 

 

Reflexology has Egyptian origins dating back to 3000 BC and also has Chinese origins.  Ancient writing describes a pressure therapy using fingers and thumbs.

 

Reflexology is beneficial for people of all ages and is both relaxing and therapeutic and is a safe and gentle treatment, suitable for all ages and in the later stages of pregnancy, bringing about healing in the body and great stress relief.

What issues can Reflexology Help With?

As with most holistic therapies, reflexology effects the functioning systems of the whole body, so the benefits are many. It is especially useful in helping digestive problems, bowel disorders, stress and stress related disorders, inflammatory conditions including arthritis and many other illnesses.
