Reflexology is a therapy in which the therapist uses their thumbs and fingers to apply pressure to the client's feet. The feet mirror the body. All organs, systems and glands of the body can be mapped onto areas of the feet called reflex points. The points are stimulated in order to bring about a response in the corresponding part of the body.
Reflexology is based on the ancient Chinese theory that energy is flowing all around our bodies. If the energy can flow freely then we are balanced and healthy. If the energy is obstructed, illness may result.

Reflexology works along holistic principles treating your mind, body and spirit. For instance, if you are suffering from stress, your body is affected as well as your mind. Similarly, a physical illness can be emotionally draining. Reflexology rebalances the whole of your being and so can be more effective than working directly on one part of you.
