We spend countless hours on our feet every day. The constant stress and weight can eventually takes its toll on our feet and overall health. There are thousands of tiny nerves in our feet called reflexes.
By methodically pressing on these reflexes, you can eliminate stress on your feet and bring about amazing overall health benefits. Foot reflexology can bring about a number of positive changes throughout the entire body, even though only the feet are being touched. Just one session can greatly reduce stress, and in turn, help you feel deep relaxation. Reflexology also helps to restore both physical and emotional balance.

She is also a licensed massage therapist and certified hypnotherapist. Worldwide research found that reflexology can help alleviate health problems such as backache, arthritis, heart disease, depression, fatigue, menopausal issues, and headache.
And it can be a huge stress reliever. Medical research shows a direct link between diseases and stress. Just one session is a great introduction to reflexology. The stress reduction benefits can last a few days to a few weeks. Always talk to your doctor before beginning a session. Reflexology is not a substitute for medical treatment. A reflexologist skillfully applies manual pressure using their fingers and thumbs to specific points and reflex areas on the feet.
If you have a specific condition you would like addressed, the reflexologist can carefully feel and work that area corresponding to the presenting problem. However, they will still work all areas of your foot using gentle pressure.
