About Reflexology
Reflexology is the gentle application of specific thumb, finger and hand techniques to areas of your feet, hands or ears (face), that triggers a reflex response in a corresponding area of the body. This is how your body begins its own natural healing process by clearing blockages to increase circulation, reduce tension, strengthen your immune system and allow your body to return to balance or homeostasis.
How Can We Nourish Our Feet & Body?
- 1. Reduce Stress 80% of disease and illness is related to stress, therefore a huge threat towards wellness and balance.
- 2. Move & Articulate Our feet need exercise! Get them out of shoes: wiggle toes, bend, flex, separate toes, and rotate ankles for at least one minute daily.
- 3. Choose Better Footwear Avoid high heels and pointed shoes which cause bunions and corns. Opt for athletic shoes that are flexible with a wide toe box.
- 4. Pamper Your Feet Soak your feet in 1/2 cup Epsom Salts, get regular pedicures, and always cut toenails straight across.
Reflexology helps the body return to its natural state of balance.
