Reflexology, also known  as Zone Therapy, is a holistic, complementary method of restoring and harmonizing the whole body. It involves pressing on the soles in a specific way and for a certain period of time activating the body's self-healing mechanisms.

 

History shows that it is an ancient healing art as we have references to foot reflexology in the book of the Yellow Emperor 3,000 years ago.

 

Reflexology is based on the presence of reflex points all over the body on the soles of the feet and on the palms of the hands.

 

The macrocosm appears in the microcosm of our limbs. When an organ or function of our body has a malfunction, it is reflected in the soles of the feet. With proper pressure and massage in a specific way depending on the indications, we manage to give the body the opportunity to identify and balance this dysfunction. Let us not forget that each of us is a unique and unrepeatable creature of nature and so every disease must be treated by an experienced therapist.

 

Reflexology has nothing to do with simple foot massage, because with the right applications we help the body holistically to deal with any discrepancy from the source and not just the symptom. For example, a migraine can have several causes. However, the source of the problem can be found in the eyes, neck, digestive tract, endocrinology or neurological system. The goal of the therapist is to treat migraines from the root of the problem so that it has lasting effects and not just the symptom of headache.

 

That is why it is always important for the therapist to take a complete history so that he can identify details that will be useful to him for a complete result.

 

 

Reflexology can help significantly or in many cases

to eliminate body disharmonies.

  • Musculoskeletal problems (cervical, back pain, sciatica, tendonitis, shoulder problems)

 

  • Genital problems (polycystic ovaries, amenorrhea, painful period, menopausal symptoms, infertility issues, prostate).

 

  • Headaches - migraines

 

  • Digestive problems (colitis, gastritis, constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, gastroesophageal reflux disease, hemorrhoids, bloating)

 

  • Respiratory problems (asthma, allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, bronchitis, pharyngitis)

 

  • Psoriasis - eczema - acne

 

  • Fungal infections, urinary tract infections

 

  • Multiple Sclerosis

 

  • Migraines, chronic headaches, allergies

 

  • Dizziness, tinnitus, eye problems, high blood pressure

 

  • Depression, fatigue, poor memory

One of the most important aids offered by Reflexology is the strengthening of our immune system, which means prevention of many diseases and faster recovery from them. After all, Hippocrates was one of the first teachers of the wise saying

 

 "It's better to prevent or cure it"

Indulge in a Reflexology session to enjoy the tranquility and balance of your whole body provided you are hired by a professional reflexologist.
