How it works:
Reflexologists use specific techniques like thumb and finger walking, pressure application, and rocking movements to stimulate reflex points.
These techniques are believed to activate nerve pathways and energy channels, promoting relaxation and reducing tension.
It's thought that by stimulating these points, reflexology can help to clear energy blockages and restore balance within the body's systems.
Things to consider:
Reflexology is not a substitute for conventional medical treatment.
It's important to consult with a qualified and experienced reflexologist.
Some individuals may experience a "healing crisis" after a session, where symptoms temporarily worsen before improving, due to the body's natural detoxification process.
Reflexology is generally considered safe, but it's important to inform your reflexologist about any health conditions you may have, such as circulatory issues or foot problems.
