Reflexology is a regulating, preventive technique that promotes deep relaxation and activates the body’s self-healing mechanisms. The technique includes manual pressure onto precise points or areas of the feet, the reflex points, which correspond to specific areas of the body. By stimulating the reflex points, health is promoted through the body’s energetic pathways. The benefits are particularly in reducing pain, enhancing relaxation, preventing certain symptoms and pains as well as gaining mental and physical balance.
