Hand Reflexology

Service Description

Reflexology is a complementary therapy that involves the application of pressure to specific points (reflex points) in the feet, hands, or ears to stimulate the body's natural healing response. The theory is that these reflex points correspond to specific parts of the body including organs and joints. By applying pressure to these reflex points, reflexologists believe they can stimulate the flow of energy or Qi in the body, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and assisting the body in healing itself. In a Hand Reflexology session, the practitioner applies pressure to reflex points in the hands using his or her fingers, thumbs or special instruments. The pressure applied, and the points it is applied to, are specific to the clients needs. During the session the client typically sits in a comfortable chair or lies down. *Disclaimer* While reflexology is generally considered safe, it is important to not that it should not be used as a substitute for medical treatment. People with certain health conditions, including diabetes and circulatory problems, should consult their doctor before trying reflexology.
