Introduction of Foot Reflexology
Foot Reflexology is the physical act of applying pressure to the feet with specific thumb, finger and hand techniques. it is based on a system of zones and reflex areas that reflect an image of the body on the feet with a premise that such work effects a physical change to the body.
In general terms the benefits of Foot reflexology have to do with the reduction of stress. Because the feet help set the tension level for the rest of the body, they are an easy way to interrupt the stress signal and reset homeostasis, the body's equilibrium.
Foot Reflexology is a complement to standard medical care. It should not be construed as medical advice. It should not be a replacement to medical help.
The benefits of Foot Reflexology include:
- Relaxation
- Pain reduction
- Amelioration of symptoms for health concerns
- Rejuvenation of tired feet
- Improvement in blood flow
- Impact on physiological measures (e. g. blood pressure and cholesterol; measurements by ECG, EEG, and MRI)
- Beneficial for post-operative recovery and pain reduction
- Enhancement of medical care (e. g. cancer, phantom limb pain, and hemodialysis patients)
- Adjunct to mental health care (e. g. depression, anxiety, Post traumatic stress disorder)
- Complement to cancer care (pain, nausea, vomiting, anxiety)
- Easier birthing / delivery / post-partum recovery
We offer foot bath with Chinese herbs for about 15minites before starting foot reflexology therapy in order to enhance blood flow and soften the feet.
