Reflexology

Reflexology is a technique that centres on applying manual pressure to specific areas of the foot that are believed to be associated with certain organs or systems of the body. It is thought that the stimulation of these areas unblocks the energy flow responsible for the pain or disease in the corresponding part of the body.
