Reflexology Foot and Hand Reflexology is based on the premise that there are zones and reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all body parts. Applying specific pressures using thumb, finger and hand techniques, reduce stress causing a physiological change in the body. Reflexology applies pressure to a range of particular points on your hands and feet that correspond with all the organs, glands, tissues and muscles in your body. Reflexology applies this response to the whole body. By applying pressure to points on your feet and hands, you can treat and heal problems elsewhere in the body. Reflexology is based on similar principles to acupuncture and some types of massage - that our bodies are mapped by channels of energy, or "qi" (pronounced "chee'); we feel pain, or generally unwell, when the flow of that energy is blocked in some way. By putting pressure on one part of these channels, the reflexologist sends an impulse or message all the way along it, which unblocks it and encourages the energy to flow freely again. This in turn brings us back into good health and a sense of balance and well-being, and stimulates our body's own healing responses. It is such a comprehensive treatment, reflexology can help you in many other ways, with anything from a trapped nerve to depression. Reflexology is recommended by doctors for a variety of conditions, including: * back pain and muscle strain * sports injuries * stress * anxiety and depression * sleep and eating disorders * poor circulation * irritable bowel syndrome * migraine * pre-menstrual tension * symptoms of the menopause * breathing difficulties such as asthma There are many types of reflexology. The common types of reflexology are: * Standard Reflexology * Zone Therapy * Vertical Reflex Therapy (VRT) * The Reflex Meridian Therapy * 5 Elements Reflexology * The Morell Technique |
