REFLEXOLOGY
It is a gentle
art, that is fascinating and extremely effective form of therapeutic foot message that is
widely used today.
Reflexology is
a holistic healing technique and aims to treat the individual as an entity that deals
completely with the body, mind, and spirit.
Reflexology
does not isolate a disease or treat the symptoms, but focuses on the whole body, and
person with the intent of inducing a state of balance and harmony.
Reflexology is
a specific pressure technique which works on precise reflex pints on the feet. This is
based on the premise that these areas of the feet correspond with all body parts and
through this technique pressure is applied that helps in the healing process.
As a holistic
therapy, REFLEXOLOGY treats the body as a whole and endeavors to get to the root cause of
disease and treat this not the symptoms.
The length of
treatments and number of sessions will vary according to the person and their condition.
An effect is often experienced immediately after the first treatment and results are
apparent after the 3rd or 4th treatment in either complete or considerable improvement. As
the patient receives these treatments, they will notice the practitioner sees their foot
as a map to the different areas of their body and the healing of such.
