What is Reflexology?
Known to the ancient cultures of Egypt,
India and China, reflexology has increased in popularity over the
last few years in the West and has gained respect as an important,
safe and natural healing art.
Based on the theory that the human body has its
own internal energy lines and that ill health can arise from an
energetic imbalance, reflexologists use reflexology points on the
feet, relating to different parts of the body, to restore balance,
assist in the prevention of ill health and bring about relaxation.
Practitioners and clients alike say that reflexology
treats mind, body and spirit and is a wonderful therapy especially
for those who enjoy having their feet touched; it can also work
for those with sensitive feet, as pressure is usually firm.
Working through the feet to help support and heal
the whole person, not just the prevailing symptoms, reflexology
has been shown to be effective for back pain, migraine, infertility,
arthritis, sleep disorders, hormonal imbalances, sports injuries,
digestive disorders and stress-related conditions.
During a treatment, the practitioner will usually
begin by taking a case history, and having made the client comfortable,
use their hands to apply pressure to the feet; application and effect
will vary according to individual therapists.
An experienced, well-trained reflexologist may
be able to detect subtle changes in specific points on the feet,
and by working on these points, affect the corresponding organ or
system of the body.
Sessions usually lasts for about an hour and courses
of treatment may be recommended depending on individual needs.
Suitable for all ages, reflexology can offer relief
from a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. Clients, having
completed a course of treatment for a specific condition, many find
it beneficial to continue with regular treatments to maintain health
and wellbeing.
