What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is an ancient healing practice that uses gentle pressure on specific Reflex points in the feet and hands to restore balance and promote overall well-being. This technique, rooted in traditions from Egypt, India, and China, encourages the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
There is evidence of foot therapy in Egyptian tomb called Ankhamor with art work from 2330 B.C. where physicians are depicted applying pressure to the hands and feet. Also seen on Buddha statues feet in India and China. There is evidence of a book from 1582 published in Europe about the precursor of Reflexology called Zone Therapy! So this is an old modality that has been refined through centuries.
Who uses Reflexology?
Reflexology has gained popularity among celebrities, athletes and wellness enthusiasts. Famous figures like Princess Diana, Oprah Winfrey, Walter Mondale’s wife have used Reflexology to support relaxation and overall wellness.
What to Expect During a Session
Many clients drift into a deep state of relaxation—sometimes even a trance-like sleep—only to wake up feeling refreshed, re-energized, and at ease. This deep sense of calm allows the body to transition from a state of stress (Sympathetic Mode) to a healing, restorative state (Parasympathetic Mode).

The Benefits of Reflexology
The goal of Reflexology is to activate your body’s natural healing response. While relaxation is immediate, the real magic happens in the days following your session, as aches, pains, and even chronic health concerns often begin to ease.
