During a reflexology session manual pressure is applied to points located on the feet that correspond to all parts and systems of
the body. By doing so accumulated stress levels as well as habitual patterns of stress are addressed. Release of tension enables the
body to return to a state of equilibrium, enabling it to do its job more effectively and more efficiently.
As balance is restored,
physiological changes in the body are effected. These include,but are not limited to stress reduction, the improvement of nerve function
and circulation, which in turn, increase the supply of oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body and aid in the elimination of
toxins and waste products. On a structural level, gentle manipulation of the tissues around the numerous joints of the feet/ankles
encourages release of holding patterns and enables greater ease and range of movement in these joints. This, in turn, can affect the
alignment of the entire body.
