What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is based on the principle that reflex points on the feet and hands provide a map to the entire body, promoting natural healing. Gentle pressure is applied to the reflexes using a range of techniques including massage, but this is so much more than a foot or hand massage. Reflex points on the feet and hands correspond to the systems and organs of the body so it offers a whole body experience despite touch only being applied to the feet or hands. The foot maps Reflexologists study and use today are based upon those developed by Eunice Ingham 'The mother of modern Reflexology' in the 1930s.
