Reflexology is a non invasive therapy that is based on the principle that the body is divived into ten zones or energy channels that run from the head to the hands and the feet.

Reflexologists believe that each organ and body part lies along one or more of these zones and has a reflex in the corresponding zones of the foot.

During a reflexology treatment of about one hour pressure is applied to the reflex points on the feet to help restore homeostasis(balance) in the body. 

Reflexology stimulates the body's natural healing ability to overcome the minor and major ailments of stress and to enhance quality of life.
