Reflexology is a deeply relaxing treatment with therapeutic benefits.

Specific areas of the feet are reflex points to all organs and structures of the body.

By stimulating these reflex areas, healing is stimulated in the corresponding part of the body. Reflexology understands that many illnesses are due to blockages in the flow of energy or Qi through pathways in the body, and from a slowing down of biochemical reactions within the cells. This leads to imbalances and disharmony in the internal environment and the development of health conditions.

By stimulating specific reflex points, chemical reactions are speeded up, encouraging the bodies natural healing processes. Energy blockages are released, aiding the flow of energy. Balance within the body is restored and healing takes place.

Reflexology can be of benefit to many health conditions. It understands that the body works as one and that all systems of the body are connected and effect each other.
