Body and Massage Therapy
Reflexology is said to have originated in China some 5000 years ago, when pressure therapy where used to correct energy fields in the body. It was not until around 1913 that the therapy was introduced to the west by an American ear, nose and throat consultant, Dr William Fitzgerald.
It works on the principle that reflex points in the hands and feet correspond to every part of the body. By working on these "reflexes" blockages in the energy pathways are cleared, aiding the body to heal itself. Each treatment lasts approximately 1 hour and is completed with a relaxing foot massage.
Reflexology does not claim to be a "cure all", but numerous different disorders seem to be responding well to this natural therapy. These disorders include such things as migraine, sinus problems, hormonal imbalances, breathing difficulties, digestive problems, circulatory problems, back problems, tension and stress.
