Reflexology Foot Massage
Our reflexology Foot Massage treatment is based on the theory of Reflexology which implies that there are reflexes in the feet and hands that correspond to every organ, gland and part of the body. Reflexology is known to improve the flow of blood, nutrients, lymph, energy and reduce muscle tension and pain.
During a foot reflexology session, your Reflexologist will apply pressure to the reflex points, and use this to observe areas in the body which are experiencing pain, stress or tension. They can then manipulate the feet gently, which may result in a beneficial effect for those parts of the body. Each area of the foot corresponds with a different part of the body, for example:
The ball of the foot relates to the chest
The heel relates to the lower back
The arch of the foot relates to the different digestive organs
The Foot Massage treatments are based on the principals of Reflexology – the theory that there are reflexes in the feet and hands that correspond to every organ, gland and part of the body. Reflexology is known to improve the flow of blood, nutrients, lymph and energy to minimize the risk of flight related Deep Vain Thrombosis (DVT), reduce muscle tension and pain. It re-educates, re-patterns and re-conditions the nerves through the neural/electrical system of the body to biologically correct, strengthen, and reinforce itself, to reach balance, normalization, and homeostasis.
Customers could choose between a 20 or 30 minute treatment during which they relax in a specially designed ergonomic chair while their feet are pampered and attended upon by trained and certified practitioners. Each foot treatment commences with a cleansing and heat treatment process using steamed towels containing a mixture of essential oils and water. Once complete, the practitioner systematically stimulates acupressure points in each foot to rub away aches, pains and tension. To make the treatment more comfortable, a light, aqueous, hypo-allergenic cream is used to moisturize the feet. Upon completion of the treatment, any residual cream is then removed leaving the skin adequately hydrated and supple.
Benefits Of Foot Reflexology…
Reflexology can address anything from headaches to sinus problems to stomach issues. If sensitivity or tenderness is experienced when an area is stimulated, it usually indicates bodily weaknesses or imbalances within the corresponding organ.
With repeated pressure and manipulation of nerve endings, reflexology can help to clear any channels of blocked energy. It is said to do so through moving the flow of blood, nutrients and nerve impulses. This ultimately improves overall health and balance.
