What is reflexology?
Reflexology is based on the principle that the body is mapped out on the feet & hands. The treatment consists of light pressure on the reflex points on the feet and sometimes the hands to encourage the body to restore its own balance.
As a holistic therapy reflexology treats the whole person and not the symptom of a disease. It is deeply relaxing, revitalising and helps harmonise all the body systems.
History of Reflexology
It is difficult to pin point where reflexology originates from however it is believed that Reflexology dates back some 5000 years. It is said that inscriptions found in the physician’s tomb at Saqqara in Egypt depict reflexology. The translation of the hieroglyphics are "Don’t hurt me." The practitioner’s replies "I shall act so you praise me."
