Reflexology
Reflexology is a natural healing art based
on the notion that there are reflexes in
the hands and feet that transmit to every
organ and gland in the body. When pressure
is applied to the hands or feet, it removes
energy blocks, causes increased circulation
throughout the body and promotes improved
bodily and muscular functions.
The human hands and feet are more sensitive
than most people realize. Hands and feet
are able to detect movement, pressure and
weight distribution. Reflexology
is used on these sensitive areas of the
body to clear unwanted blockages and help
resolve many health problems in a completely
natural way.
Often times during your first treatment,
your practitioner will sit with you and
gather information on your health history
and current lifestyle. Then he or she will
proceed to put pressure on different areas
of your hands or feet that will in turn
stimulate different organs of the body.
The effects of this treatment are unique
to everyone so each will respond differently.
Based on these results, the practitioner
will then determine a course of treatment
in order to help improve any bodily ailments.
Many patients have said that even after
the first treatment, they feel more relaxed
and have a better sense of well-being. Once
satisfied, many reflexology patients continue
with treatment in order to maintain their
healthier lifestyle.
Reflexology has been known to improve
many ailments including, migraines, back
pain, sleep disorders, arthritis, digestive
disorders, and many stress-related conditions.
By including this form of massage in our
daily lives, emotional and physical improvements
can be achieved as well as increased confidence,
a higher rate of self-esteem and an improvement
in concentration. This form of massage is
known for having positive effects on both
the body and the mind.
