Reflexology
Some extended health benefits cover reflexology. Check with your provider!
Reflexology therapies are natural therapeutic methods derived from study based on the principle that there are reflexes in the body that map to other parts, glands, and organs of the body. Through the application of pressure on these reflexes, reflexology therapy can:
- relieve tension
- improve circulation
- support the body to function optimally
Reflexology helps to manage many common ailments such as:
-
- musculoskeletal pain;
-
insomnia;
-
anxiety;
-
stress; and
-
hormonal and digestive issues to name a few.
-
- musculoskeletal pain;
Reflexology can provide much needed relief through working the body reflex that ails you on a part of the body that does not.
The body has the ability to heal itself. Following illness, stress, injury or disease, it is in a state of “imbalance” and vital body systems can be blocked, preventing the body from functioning optimally.
Reflexology can be used to restore and maintain the body’s natural balance and facilitate healing. For each person, the application and the effect of the therapy are unique. Sensitive, trained hands can detect tiny deposits and imbalances and by working on these points, the Reflexology Therapist can release these blockages.
Reflexology is non-invasive. You do not have to remove your clothing and it treats the entire body!
