Reflexology is a science that deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body. Reflexology is a unique method of using the thumb and fingers on these reflex areas.
Foot and hand Reflexology includes, but is not limited to, these uses:
- to relieve stress and tension
- to improve blood supply and promote the unblocking of nerve impulses.
- to help nature achieve homeostasis
Approximately 75% of today’s diseases are attributable to stress and tension. Various body systems are affected in different ways and to varying degrees. One person may exhibit cardiovascular problems, another gastrointestinal upset, anorexia, palpitations, sweating, headaches etc. to mention but a few of the myriad of bodily reactions to stress.
A short circuit is often caused by tension putting pressure on a vital nerve plexus or even a single nerve structure supplying a vital organ.
As tension is eased, pressure on the nerves and vessels is relaxed, thus improving the flow of blood and its oxygen rich nutrients to all parts of the body.
So do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a Reflexology experience this month.
