Reflexology Massage

Like other forms of holistic medicine, reflexology aims to support the body's natural healing ability. Reflexology massage is a therapeutic alternative treatment that is based on the notion that certain areas of the ears, hands, and feet are connected by nerves to other parts of the body targeting major systems of the body as well as specific internal organs such as the kidney, bladder, and liver.

In reflexology, the pressure that is applied to a particular reflex point can remedy problems that are associated with specific body parts and organs. A point that is on the arch of your foot for example can correspond to the proper functioning of the liver. Thus, if pressure is applied properly to this point on a foot liver function can improve.

Using maps of the hands and the feet as a guide, reflexologists apply pressure to problem areas to increase the flow of endorphins in your body, relieve stress, and promote relaxation. Reflexology has become a popular complement to traditional post-operative care and pain management programs for cancer patients.
