Reflexology

Reflexology rests on the ancient Chinese belief in qi (pronounced “chee”), or “vital energy.” According to this belief, qi flows through each person. When a person feels stressed, their body blocks qi.

This can cause an imbalance in the body that leads to illness. Reflexology aims to keep qi flowing through the body, keeping it balanced and disease free.

When there is dis-ease in the body, nerve endings can become congested and Reflexology works to clear this congestion, naturally improving blood flow and nourishment to the affected areas. Using pressure to the feet, guided by foot maps created in the early 1900’s, Reflexologists can treat appropriate areas which correspond to different body parts. Reflexology is stress reducing, relaxing, balancing, energising, increases circulation and improves toxin elimination.
