What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a holistic method for activating the healing powers of the body. It involves pressure and massage to the reflex points found on the feet and hands.

Treatment is based on the principle that there are energy zones running through the body, connecting the reflex areas in the feet with all major organs, glands and body parts.

Practitioners believe that health problems stem from blockages in these energy channels. The purpose of the massage is to unblock the channels and restart the flow of energy so that natural healing can occur.

Treatments

The Reflexologist uses specific techniques to detect and clear any imbalances.

Treatment lasts for one hour and there is no need to undress. You simply remove you shoes to be treated in a relaxing environment, designed especially for your individual needs.

The frequency of your appointments will be discussed with your practitioner and will be based on your health condition.

Receiving treatments on a regular basis increases your physical well-being and reduces your stress level.
