Reflexology
Reflexology is a body-work technique used for activating the healing powers of the body. It is a natural healing art based on the principle that there are reflexes in the head, feet, and hands that relate to all parts of the body.
These reflexes, when stimulated, release vital energy in their associated meridians, which revitalizes and balances all of the body parts and organs linked to each meridian. This creates improved functioning of the organs, and enhanced well-being.
The 4 main benefits of receiving a reflexology treatment are:
1) It reduces stress and induces deep relaxation;
2) It improves blood and energy circulation throughout the body;
3) It normalizes body conditions;
4) It maintains health, and as such, works as preventative health care.

Reflexology is not a simple foot massage. It has multiple health benefits that are deeply enhanced by the flow of energy in the meridians. According to Laura Norman, "The reflexologist is a channel of healing. The laying on of hands and the specific techniques for applying pressure to the feet create the channels for healing energy to circulate to all parts of the body." (1)
