For more information see our FAQs and testimonials.What is it?
Reflexology is a specific pressure technique applied to the feet where all the internal body structures and organs are mapped or mirrored in miniature.
On the feet are reflex points which correspond to different organs of the body and by pressing or working on one of these points the corresponding organ is affected.
If crystals or tenderness is felt in a certain area it is an indication of a blockage or imbalance in the corresponding organ or body parts.
Crystals are waste deposits made up of excess calcium and uric acid that build up when the metabolism is not working correctly. The reflexologist will spend time working on these crystals and sensitive areas using the thumbs and sometimes fingers to help release the blockages and break down the deposits so they can be eliminated by the body.
Reflexology is a safe non invasive and a relaxing treatment. It's aim is to help the body to heal itself and to maintain a balanced state of health.
