ReflexologyReflexology Areas: Feet & Hands
Reflexology is a healing art of ancient origin. Reflexology is a complex system that identifies and addresses the mass of 7,000 nerve endings that are contained in the foot. Additional reflexology addresses the nerves that are located in the hand. This is a completely natural therapy that affords relief without the use of drugs Reflexology is extremely safe. A reflexology session involves pressure treatment that is most commonly administered in foot therapy sessions of approximately 30 minutes in duration. The foot therapy may be followed by a hand therapy session. No artificial devices or special equipment are associated with this therapy. The human hand is the primary tool used in reflexology. The therapist applies controlled pressure with the thumb and forefinger, generally working toward the heel of the foot or the outer palm of the hand. Most reflexologists apply pressure with their thumbs bent; however, some also use simple implements. Reflexology therapy is not massage, and it is not a substitute for medical treatment. The qualified reflexologist offers a clear and open disclaimer that reflexology does not constitute medical treatment in any form, nor is reflexology given as a substitute for medical advice or treatment. The ultimate purpose of the therapy is to promote wellness; fundamentally it is a form of preventive therapy.
