Reflexology

The feet ground us both literally and figuratively. They are our contact with the earth and the energies that flow through it.  They are our base, our foundation.  A steady foot means stability and security. When we "lose our footing" we lose our state of balance and equilibirium. 


Reflexology is a holistic healing art and science, with roots in Egypt, China and India, based on the principle that there are reflexes on the feet, hands and ears that correspond to all of the major organs, glands, and other parts of the body.


As the feet, hands or ears are worked on using finger pressure and thumb walking, the energy pathways of the body unblock, allowing the body to heal itself.  A reflexology session helps promote healthy organ function, profound relaxation and an indescribable sense of well-being.  It revitalizes and rejuvenates on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level.
