Reflexology is a Form of Bodywork
Reflexology is an ancient art and science practiced throughout the world to assist the body in good health and healing. Results are achieved through the working of reflexes which are specific points of the hands, feet, and ears that correspond to the systems of the body, organs, muscles, tissues, and nerves.
Reflexology works through the application of pressure to a reflex affecting the nerves that carry the signal to the corresponding area of the body. Benefits are not limited to relaxation, improved lymphatic drainage, and blood circulation. Creating the relief of stress in turn assisting your body in finding balance and healing.
Reflexology is not massage. Where massage is the manipulation of soft tissue affecting the body from the outside in. Reflexology is the application of pressure to the reflex to affect the body from the inside out. Very important to know, unlike a massage therapist whose license allows for the working of the whole body. Reflexology licensure allows for only the working of the hands, feet, and ears.
