REFLEXOLOGY
What is Reflexology? The Chinese are said to have used an early form of Reflexology more than 5000 years ago.
Reflexology is based on the principle that energy zones run throughout the body and that the feet and hands represent a map of the body corresponding to the five zones. Pressure applied to the reflex points, that relate to specific areas or organs in the body can help to alleviate the symptoms of many conditions and the complete treatment sets in motion a detoxification process that aids the restoration of homeostasis, or natural balance in the body, mind and spirit.
Reflexology is suitable for most people, however there are certain conditions where Reflexology should be avoided, all treatments begin with a consultation to ensure that Reflexolgy is right for you. In some instances a doctors permission may be required before treatment can commence.
