Reflexology is based on the belief that each part of the body is interconnected through the nervous system to the hands and feet. The technique uses pressure-point massage on the feet or on the hands and on the ears. The stimulation of these pressure points, or reflex points, restores the flow of energy throughout the entire body.
The science of Reflexology is based on the premise that the reflex points in the hands, feet and ears relate to every organ and part of the body.

This can help restore balance throughout the body.
Beneficial effects of reflexology include increased relaxation and reduced stress, increased energy and relief from acute and chronic conditions.
