Additionally, Reflexology can bring soothing stress relief and relaxation to the mind, body and spirit. The treatment can be pleasurable and extremely relaxing to receive, as well as invigorating and energising. Stress relief Whether you suffer from insomnia, migraines, digestive problems or fatigue, the root of many health problems can be linked to stress. Under the influence of prolonged stress the body is less capable of fighting illness. Reflexology counteracts the effects of stress by promoting relaxation and bringing balance to the body. Muscle relaxation Reflexology stimulates nerve endings in the feet to release the energy, relax muscles and restore physical harmony. Circulation improvement All the body’s systems need good blood circulation in order to function well. The blood carries nutrients and oxygen to the cells and removes waste products and toxins. Reflexology keeps the body’s circulation flowing smoothly, which rejuvenates tired tissues. Detoxify and cleanse Riding the body of waste and toxins is extremely important. When the lymphatic, urinary or intestinal systems become blocked due to a build up of toxins and waste the energy in the body stagnates. This may cause you to feel bloated, lethargic or even sick. Reflexology can release these blockages, helping your body to “let go” and eliminate toxins and waste, cleansing the body of all impurities. This will encourage the body to naturally restore its own healthy balance.
