Favouring the feet for healing.

Foot reflexology is the study and practice of working reflexes in the feet which correspond to other parts of the body. The right foot represents the right side of the body and the left foot the left side of the body. The body is mapped into zones. Because it is best done on the feet, although the hands can be used, and since it is a reflex action the term ‘foot reflexology’ is used.

Foot reflexology relaxes tension in the body, reduces vascular constriction and lets the blood and nerve supply flow more freely. The body can then repair itself.

A session with me begins with a warm foot bath with aromas added to it and a quarter cup of apple cider vinegar. This helps to relax the foot. I use very tiny circular motions and as circulation is increased to the corresponding organ or part of the body; healing begins. Although foot reflexology isn’t a cure all, it is a most valuable method of aiding the body in healing itself of many various ailments.

I trained in this therapy during my naturopathy course in 1982. It is so exciting to see that at long last more people are realising how effective this treatment is. Call me to book an appointment and try this out for yourself.
