Reflexology    Maria Furugori

Foot reflexology is the practice of applying pressure to specific points on the feet in order to bring about a state of deep relaxation, stimulate the body's own healing power and restore a state of well-being and health.

It is a gentle and effective holistic therapy, treating the whole person. It works on the principle that every major organ, bone, gland and system is represented in miniature form on the feet.

A qualified reflexologist is skilled in using the body maps on the feet to treat the whole body, applying pressure to very precise points and areas with their hands. They can also identify areas of imbalance, often felt as small deposits. By working to ease these, blockages, which are often the root cause of discomfort and symptoms, can be released and the free flow of energy restored to the whole body. As the flow of energy is restored, tension is eased, circulation and elimination are improved and a state of natural equilibrium, which is conducive to optimum health, is returned to the body.

Reflexology is a safe and gentle form of treatment that is suitable for men and women, from babies to the elderly. It can be used to treat a specific condition or as a way to maintain overall health and well-being.
