Reflexology Reflexology is the art and science of enervating over 7000 nerves on the feet believed by reflexologists to correspond to every muscle system or organ in the body. The procedure is non-invasive and focuses on the body's natural ability to heal itself. Reflexology can be used for a variety of conditions-it helps reduce stress, assist in pain control; balances hormones and can enhance a persons mental state. It may also be effective in boosting the immune system, removing toxins and increasing circulation. Reflexology differs from massage in that it 'pushes' on pressure points to elicit a response or reflex. This response from the nervous system helps create balance throughout the entire body. Reflexology can induce an optimal state of relaxation, which is conducive to healing. The research to substantiate what most experienced reflexologists know is still in its infancy but slowly the medical profession are beginning to accept that reflexology has an important part to play in helping people to heal themselves
