Reflexology is a holistic treatment that follows the traditional Chinese medicine principle that the body’s vital energy (qi) travels through the body along pathways known as meridians. The soles of the feet and palms of the hand are thought to be a mirror image of the body’s internal structures. The reflexology practitioner applies light pressure to reflex points in the toes, feet and ankles creating a stimulating effect which relaxes tension, improves nerve and blood supply, restores balance to the body and stimulates natural healing processes. Reflexology can be an extremely relaxing treatment which aids both the physical body and emotional wellbeing. It can help to boost energy, improve circulation and strengthen the immune system.
