GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF REFLEXOLOGY

  • Reflexology maps the feet as a mirror concept of the body. When pressure techniques are applied correctly, subtle changes begin to take place in the body and the end result is stimulating the body’s own healing ability.
  • Reflexology requires skills based on scientific foundations. It is both a science and an art. It is a science, because it is based on physiological and neurological study, and an art, because it depends on the skill of the therapist that applies that knowledge.
  • Therapeutic Reflexology is scientifically based and should not be confused with foot or body massage. The therapists use their thumb to apply pressure on specific nerve endings to stimulate the relevant organ. The first initial treatment could be uncomfortable till toxins are released from the body.
  • Reflexology is a holistic therapy that balances body, mind and spirit, which are essential components for true wellness.
  • Regular reflexology treatments facilitate the body to function optimally and maintain good health. When the body is functioning optimally, there is balance.
  • Reflexology facilitates a state of relaxation.
  • Reflexology encourages the opening and clearing of the neural pathways.
  • Reflexology does not discriminate, nor does any harm.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Reflexology stimulus activates an electrochemical nerve impulse that is sent to the central nervous system via a sensory (afferent neurone). This message is received by the ganglion and transmitted via a motor (afferent) neurone which causes a response.

REFLEXOLOGY AS EFFECTIVE THERAPEUTIC TREATMENT

Reflexology is a highly effective therapeutic treatment. More people are changing their lifestyles and are realising the benefits of natural healing medicines and treatments. By going for regular therapeutic reflexology treatment stress levels will decrease and that in itself is a beginning to improved health. It is beneficial for everyone, all ages and because it improves your body’s immune system it is a complimentary healing therapy for people suffering from severe and chronic diseases.

RELAXATION
Reflexology is known to open neural pathways and flood the nervous system with neuron activity which puts the body in a more relaxed state. By delivering an abundance of relaxation in your system, reflexology can induce a state of calm throughout your body and mind. Employing this phenomenon, reflexology can be used to improve sleep disorders such as Insomnia and help your body get back to its normal, healthy circadian rhythms.
IMPROVEMENT OF YOUR NERVE FUNCTIONS
As bodies age, the nerve endings become less and less sensitive in the extremity parts of our body. Opening up and cleaning out neural pathways can help improve functionality and flexibility of nerves and cells in various organs in the body. Neural passageways are essentially like muscles, it is extremely beneficial and crucial to your health to keep them active.
IMPROVEMENT IN YOUR BRAIN POWER
By stimulating your nerves and opening your neural pathways, information flows much faster and more effectively to you brain which would help your brain to process the information faster which would result in a much faster cognitive and physical reactions and a boost in your memory.
INCREASED BLOOD CIRCULATION IN YOUR BODY
Effectively the most well-known benefit of reflexology is an improvement in blood circulation throughout your body, which means that blood along with oxygen gets cycled and delivered through the body more efficiently. Improvement in circulation also means more oxygen reaching the vital organ systems which optimizes their functioning and further increases metabolism. The deliverance of oxygen through the body also results in faster healing and re-growth of damaged cells.
