Reflexology is a science based on the premise that there are zones and
reflex areas in the feet, hands, face and ears 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,
results in the reduction of stress, which promotes physiological changes
in the body. Sometimes working on the zones or reflex areas are more
beneficial rather than working the specific area of the body if there is
substantial damage done in that area. |
