About
Foot Reflexology is a systematic procedure of applying pressure to specific points on the feet to cause a response in corresponding parts of the body. Applying pressure to these spots will enhance the body’s ability to reach and maintain homeostasis.
Reflexologists work from studied maps of related pressure points on the hands and feet. These points are connected directly to the nervous system and fascia and then have an effect on the body. Any part of the body, that is a source of pain, illness, or potential debility, can be strengthened through the application of pressure at the corresponding location on the hand or foot.
