Reflexology is a complementary therapy that works on the feet and hands enabling the body to heal itself. Following illness, stress, injury or disease, the body is in a state of “imbalance”, and vital energy pathways are blocked, preventing it from functioning effectively.

Reflexology is the technique of applying gentle pressure to the reflexes on the feet or hands in order to bring about a state of deep relaxation, stimulate the body's own healing processes and help the person to return to a state of balance and wellbeing.
