What is Reflexology?
"Reflexology involves massaging the feet, hands and/or ears. It is based on the principle that there are areas and points on the feet, hands, and ears that connect, via the nervous system, to corresponding parts of the body.
When pressure is applied to these areas and points it stimulates the movement of energy along the nerve channels and helps to restore homeostasis (balance) in the whole body."

What can I expect from a Reflexology session?
​
A reflexology session is similar to massage therapy, except you stay fully clothed.
You spend the entire session laying face up on the massage table as the therapist works with pressure points on your feet, hands, or ears.
