New York Reflexology

Reflexology, an ancient art practiced by all cultures, is a science based on the premise that there are zones and reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all glands, organs, parts and systems of the body. The physical act of applying pressure using thumb, finger and hand techniques to these reflex areas (reflexology) results in the reduction of stress which promotes physiological changes in the body (source: www.reflexolgy-usa.org).

A reflexologist uses hands only to apply gentle pressure to the feet. For each person the application and the effect of the therapy is unique. Sensitive, trained hands can detect tiny deposits and imbalances in the feet, and by working on these points the reflexologist can release blockages and restore the free flow of energy to the whole body. As a result of reflexology, tensions are eased, and circulation and elimination is improved.
