Grounded on the unique relationship of the body with the feet – they have unique stories to tell. Every organ/gland has a reflex point in the feet/hands – only it is more difficult to locate these reflex points in the hands as they are not so pronounced. This method when applied to the reflexes in the feet, not only breaks up the congestion of those terminals but definitely relaxes the mind and the body.
Any disorder in a certain part of the body has an effect on the corresponding reflex point on the feet – by using a reflex method we help to relieve nerve tension to stimulate the circulation so that nature can restore the normal functioning of the various glands and organs of the body. Reflexology can increase the absorption of prescribed medication and help re-balance the body’s internal chemistry – Reflexology in any form is only a means of equalizing the circulation. “Circulation is life” – “Stagnation is death”.
