Reflexology

Reflexology has been practiced world wide but most notably in Japan. The hands and feet have been regarded by many cultures as the gateway of health. The reflex points there coordinate with every gland, organ and part of the body.

Applying pressure to these points enables the body to release toxins, resulting from illness and stress. The toxins are deposited into your waste organs and eliminated by the body.

What are the benefits?

• Toxin release

• Relaxation

• Improved circulation

• Improved immune function

• Assists body in regaining balance

• Provides preventative health care

• Possible increased energy

• Possible pain relief

What are the possible reactions?

The body releases toxins in a number of ways. Depending on what your body needs to eliminate the following reactions could occur. However, these symptoms should subside after the toxins are out of the body.

Most Common

• Frequent urination

• Perspiration (during or after treatment)

• Most of my clients sleep 

Less Common

• Increased mucus flow

• Headache or nausea

• One time diarrhea

• Rash (your skin is the largest organ of elimination)

• Nose bleed (very rare)

• 24-48 hour healing crisis (tiredness or flu like symptoms)

• Once eliminated your body will be back to normal if not better

Recommended Home Care

• Relax or sleep if needed after treatment

• Drink water to aid with elimination

• Hot bath with two cups of epsom salt

• Contact me with any questions
