History
Reflexology dates back to ancient times. Chinese, Indians and Egyptians used
pressure therapy on the feet to maintain or restore good health.
It is widely accepted today as a successful treatment for many
ailments. When skillfully applied it can relax and invigorate
the entire body, stimulating the nervous system, circulation and
boosting the elimination of toxins. Reflexology has become firmly
established as a complimentary healing art.
Benefits
One of the many benefits of Reflexology is its effectiveness in
reducing stress. Stress affects different people in different
ways and to varying degrees. Reflexology helps to alleviate the
effects of stress by inducing deep relaxation, thereby allowing
the nervous system to function normally. A relaxed body can heal
itself faster and is a great method of relaxing the body and balancing
the body as a whole. Reflexology improves circulation; helps to
relax, de-stress; and helps you sleep better. There are no adverse
side effects with reflexology, as it is all natural. |
