Did you know your feet affect your whole body?
Foot reflexology is a relaxing treatment that uses specialized pressure techniques applied to specific reflex points on your feet which correspond to all your glands, organs, and your body structure via nerve pathways. It treats your whole body and specific health problems you may have.
Your feet are the easiest to work with since their reflex points represents a map that closely reassembles your anatomical layout of your body.
When these points are stimulated, they trigger those corresponding parts of your body to help restore balance and promote self-healing.
It is a relaxing treatment for all ages that extends far beyond your feet to help improve your health and wellbeing naturally. When used regularly, it is an excellent holistic treatment to help maintain your health.
