For most people Reflexology offers a wonderful relaxing experience, which also can be invigorating and refreshing.Put your feet up and be pampered! It is an excellent way in which to regain and maintain your health.A fascinating journey in itself since the beginning of time,reflexology has served humanity as an outstanding and incredible means of encouraging mind, body and soul to heal themselves.It is impossible to cause harm, even in inexperiences hands.

Reflexology works on the concept of small reflex maps, that suggest a shape of a human body mapped out on the feet, hands, and ears. Reflexes in the feet, hands and ears correspond to all glands , organs and parts of the body. By working on these areas on the feet, hands and ears the body's own healing is stimulated. 

Reflexology is holistic and non-invasive, working at the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. It assists the body to balance itself, promotes a gentle alignment of body, mind and spirit to promote well-being, and may increase energy  levels.   

Reflexologists do not diagnose, prescribe, or treat specific illness; rather they treat the whole person. To make a significant change in a condition, a client may need a series of treatments. Weekly visits may be recommended at first until a consistent improvement is noted. This will then progress to fortnightly, then monthly.Reflexology complements other therapies.

Reflexology- Stepping toward a happier and healthier life.

Did you know that 75% of today's disease are due stress and tension in the body. It is now Increasingly  recognized that the body doesn't just play up for the sake of it. Hipprocrates, known as the Father of Medicine, says Dis-ease is not an entity, but a fluctuating condition of the patient's body: a battle between the substances of dis-ease and the natural self-healing tendency  of the body.Reflexology and modern medicine , when used well together, make a dynamic team. It can't possibly re-align shattered or broken bones but it can reduce swellings and inner tension, as well as ease pain. No amount of medication can ever mend a broken heart, yet reflexology can assist you in finding the understanding and solution that lies within you.

Reflexology is completely natural safer form of healing that is non-evasive, simple and safe to give, yet it is responsible for some of the most impressive reactions. There are reflexes in the feet, hands and ears to every gland and organ in your body , by gently massaging these areas or nerve endings your body can and will unwind and relax, you may even start yawning or go to sleep during the treatment. The practitioner works using only the fingers and thumbs massaging, stroking and kneading the foot while you are fully clothed lying on a massage table or in a reclining chair. As these reflexes on the feet are massaged, it  either arouses or soothes the corresponding part of the body while massage itself eases the tension of the physical body and quietens your mental chatter, and soothes and reassures your emotions. At the same time it reconnects you to the essence of your spirit.You may feel your feet jerk with joy as emotional impediments are flushed away.Reflexology will help you feel totally recharged and fit for life!
