What is Reflexology?
Reflexology has origins that can be traced back to 2330 B.C. in ancient Egypt and also in India and China. Reflexology, as we know it today, is attributed to the work of Eunice Ingham, an American Therapist. (Her original work is taught exclusively by the school that she founded, "The International Institute of Reflexology.")
Reflexology is a complementary therapy widely accepted in the UK and recognised by the NHS, many GP’s and hospices. This Science works on the principle that there are reflex points in the hands and feet that directly correspond to all organs glands and parts of the body. By applying pressure to the reflex points, nerve endings are unblocked, the blood circulation is improved, the body relaxes and organs and glands become balanced. Doctors agree that over 75% of our health problems can be linked to nervous stress and tension. Reflexology is fantastic for relaxing and clearing these blockages.
Meridian Therapy works by incorporating the stimulation of accu-points found on both the hands and feet, thus increasing the effectiveness of the treatment on the whole body.
Although Reflexology is a pleasant and wonderfully relaxing treatment to receive, it is not a beauty therapy or a foot massage; it is a clinical treatment with proven results. It is totally safe for people of all ages, from babies to the elderly, for pregnant women and those undergoing most medical treatments. It has proven beneficial to sufferers of:
