What is refelexology?

Reflexology is one of the most ancient natural healing traditions, it is at least 5,000 years old. It is the efficient therapeutic massage of your feet, hands or face by applying pressure to reflex areas.

Reflexology is based on the principle each reflex area in your hands and feet relate to a particular organ or gland in your body.

Reflexology is a holistic therapy treating the person as a whole. By receiving a complete massage of your feet, your complete body is stimulated to heal and rebalance itself.

The Chinese etymology of the word "foot" literally means "the part of the body that preserves health".

Through my experience, I have come to realise that the feet have their own language. They may or not be very talkative during a reflexology session.

The relationship between the mind and the body is obvious. Your body is the mirror of your mind. Therefore, your feet express who you are at all level of your being literally and symbolically:

Physically

•  your feet carry your bodyweight, they keep you on the ground as well as maintaining your balance. They allow you to stand up and move;

Psychologically

• your thoughts and the way you emotionally deal with your life will be expressed in your feet. They represent your subconscious mind;

Spiritually

• your feet store your potential and existing energies. They symbolise your feminine side: your creativity, intuition, wisdom, imagination, dreams.

Apart from a few conditions for which Reflexology is not advisable, anyone from the age of three can benefit from it.

My customers are always amazed of how much relaxing reflexology is and how much I can tell from their feet.

Prevention is the best medicine.  Don't wait to be ill to use Reflexology as a maintenance tool.
