The importance of Human Touch In this age of gadgets and machines that try to take the place of human hands, it is important that we remember just why we go to a healing practitioner in the first place. It is for that human contact which is so vital to our health and well-being. Reflexology is a gently non-intrusive touch therapy applied to the feet. It is based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet which relate to every gland, organ and part of the body. By applying systematic pressure to the feet, a reflexologist improves circulation, promotes relaxation and stress relieve, and helps to normalize the functioning of the entire body.
Reflexology is a method for activating the healing powers of the body.
Blood is circulated faster than normal and, as a result, cleansing of the lymphatic system and increased oxygenation of the blood occurs. A Reflexology session generally lasts about an hour. You rest comfortably on cushions and listen to relaxing music. Working on one foot at a time, we systematically apply pressure to the entire foot. At the end of the session we treat your feet to a massage with scented lotion.
