Reflexology
Reflexology is based on the concept that the health and well-being of
your whole body is reflected in your feet (and hands). This is because
all your nerve endings, approx. 7000, end here. By gentle stimulation
reflexology activates your whole nervous system, which helps bring all
the body systems into harmony. Using controlled finger pressure, and
working over the whole foot (or hand), small sand-like deposits, called
crystals, are broken down. These deposits cause energy flow congestion
that reflects the imbalances within your body. The treatment improves
the flow of energy and re-balances all body systems. This achieves physical,
mental, and emotional well-being.
Reflexology is suitable for
all ages, and is an ideal therapy for wheelchair bound, or bed-ridden
people.

Treatment
Whilst lying fully clothed
on a couch, or sitting in a chair, the therapy is carried out on your
bare feet (or hands) using talcum (or corn flour) powder, cream or oil.
With controlled finger and thumb pressure the therapist works over the
whole foot and ankle region intensively for one hour. If you are diabetic,
or elderly, the session will be a lot shorter and lighter.
Ideally, to start, you should have 6 weekly treatments to break down
the build-up of crystals in the feet/hands. Thereafter, "maintenance"
sessions at 2-4 week, and later, 6-week intervals are all that is needed
to maintain your well-being.
