Reflexology
Reflexology is a non-invasive therapeutic treatment where light pressure is applied to reflex points on the feet or hands using finger and thumb techniques. It is a holistic treatment, intended to treat the whole person, rather than just the symptoms of one particular ailment. It can induce a state of relaxation, balance and harmony, which will encourage the natural ability for the body to heal itself. It is based on the premise that the reflexes on the feet are a mirror image of all the organs, glands and parts of the body. Benefits: Reflexology may help: - Boost immune function - Improve sleep, can help with insomnia and disrupted sleep patterns - Digestive problems, such as constipation, IBS, etc. - Increase energy - Relieve stress, pain, and anxiety - Improve blood and lymph circulation - Menstrual disorders, such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS) - Relieve pain in the body - Relief from headaches - Relieve pressure on legs and feet in pregnant women - Activating the body to cleanse toxins and impurities - Lower stress levels and help to induce a parasympathetic response in the body, resulting in a deep level of relaxation
