The effectiveness of reflexology is recognized worldwide by various national health institutions and the public at large as a distinct complementary practice within the holistic health field. Reflexology stimulates more than 7, nerves in the feet and encourages the opening and clearing of neural pathways then reduces pain.
It also stimulates the lymphatic system thus reducing the risk of infection. It cleanses the body of toxins and impurities, as well as, stimulates the production of endorphins, leading to an improved immune system and sense of well-being.
Reflexology works reflex points on the feet, hands and ears that represent the mirrored image of the body. The nerve pathway in both feet creates an electrochemical flow that communicates to the entire nervous system. Through the application of thumb- and finger-walking techniques, reflexology connects to the peripheral nervous system, and encourages the body to relax. Reflexology is not a foot massage. Massage is palpitation of soft tissue and muscle, whereas reflexology is the stimulation of nerve pathways.
When homeostasis is maintained, the body is healthy. Our bodies are equipped with self-healing facilities, but these often fail to work properly because the vital energy pathways are blocked because of degeneration and stress. Stress cannot be avoided. We live with it and in it every day. In itself, stress is neither good nor bad. Stress becomes a problem, however, when we fail to manage it well, especially the stress that results from problems, frustrations, overwork and worry.
