BENEFITS of REFLEXOLOGY & MASSAGE

Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress-related. Perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. REFLEXOLOGY/MASSAGE is an effective tool for managing this stress.

REFLEXOLOGY is a protocol of manual techniques such as thumb and finger walking, hook and backup, and rotating on a point, applied to specific reflex areas predominantly on the feet and hands. These techniques stimulate the complex neural pathways linking body systems, supporting the bodies efforts to function optimally.

The effectiveness of REFLEXOLOGY/MASSAGE is recognized worldwide by various natural health institutions and the public at large as a distinct complimentary practice within the holistic health field.
