Reflexology

About Reflexology

Reflexology is an integrative method that helps to restore your physical and energetic well-being through your feet and legs. It is a treatment that is performed on hands, face, ears, but most commonly the feet using pressure point therapies and can include alternative forms of massage.



Reflexology is not a foot massage. While it can be relaxing, a Reflexologist studies your feet to assess the holistic health of your physical and energetic body to create an individualized treatment plan to help send healthy, powerful signals to your internal structures. Each foot protocol helps to stimulate your body’s systems to support your health; relieving you of irritable symptoms of a condition or ailment. The feet are maps of your entire life and stories and with a reflexology treatment, we can help improve your lifestyle by clearing energetic debris from your meridians, move lymph and trigger your nervous system to reclaim balance in your life.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is Reflexology?

    Reflexology is a method of promoting wellness and fighting disease through the application of pressure, sometimes on the hands and ears, but most commonly on the feet. It is based on the premise that channels of energy flow from the different parts of the body to corresponding areas on the feet. When those channels of energy become blocked by physical or mental stress, we become ill. By applying pressure to the reflex points on the feet, we clear the blockages and promote healthy functioning in the corresponding organ or system in the body.

  • What are the benefits?

    One of the factors that makes reflexology such an effective treatment is that anybody can receive it, from pregnant women and newborn babies to elderly people and those with disabilities. It offers numerous benefits, including the following:
