Reflexology
Reflexology is a natural healing art based on the principle that there are reflexes in the head, feet and hands that relate to all parts of the body. The application of appropriate pressure is used to specific points and areas on the feet, hands, head and ears. Reflexologists believe that these areas and reflex points correspond to different body organs and systems, and that pressing them has a beneficial effect on the organs and person’s general health. 5 Benefits of Reflexology are:
1. Relaxation- mind and body
2. Improves circulation
3. Balances body’s condition
4. Maintains health
5. Boosts Immune System by 25%
History of Reflexology traces back 2000 to 4000 years ago (maybe even further back). Reflexology was being practised in India, China and Egypt.
Although reflexology is not used to diagnose or cure health disorders, millions of people around the world use it to complement other treatments when addressing conditions like anxiety, asthma, cancer treatment, cardiovascular issues, diabetes, headaches, kidney function, PMS, and sinusitis.
