Reflexology

Reflexology is an ancient art that can be dated back as far as 2300 B.C Egypt where there were pictures found in the Physician's Tomb. Other illustrations have appeared from Japan (690 A.D.) as well as Tibet, India and China.

Reflexology is the physical act of applying pressure to the feet with thumb, finger and hand techniques. Through applying these techniques to certain areas of the feet reflexology causes responses (relaxation) in corresponding parts of the body.

Relaxation is the first step to the body's return to a state of equilibrium, or homeostasis, in which circulation can flow, unimpeded to supply nutrients and oxygen to the cells. With this restoration of homeostasis, the body's organs and muscles may then return to a normal state of function.

This is very important because your state of health depends greatly on your body's ability to rebound to homeostasis after a trauma or injury (disease, stress). It is the purpose of reflexology to trigger this return.

Since stress and dis-ease are on going and a part of life for most of us, reflexology, in addition to its therapeutic uses, can serve as a preventative program. It enables you to restore and maintain a natural state of homeostasis.

Other benefits include; improves circulation, normalize and balance the body, helps to maintain a good state of health and it complements other healing modalities.
