How Does Reflexology Work?



Reflexology is a complementary therapy that treats the whole body. Every organ, structure and system of the body is mirrored in the feet and hands. They are connected through a system of energy pathways, which can become congested or blocked, causing the body to function less effectively.


Using foot/hand analysis and then applying acupressure to specific points, a reflexologist can detect the area of imbalance in the body. Through regular treatments, balance can be restored stimulating each individual's natural healing process. Reflexology is a holistic approach, emphasizing the care of the whole person.


The practitioner takes into account not just the physical symptoms, but why they have risen in the first place, addressing other factors like nutrition, environment and exercise. It is a therapeutic way to relieve stress thereby normalizing body functions as well as being effective for maintaining general health and well-being.
