Beyond the feel-good effect of the treatment, reflexology goes deeper than the skin and muscles.
In reflexology, pressure is applied to specific reflex points on the feet. These points correspond to organs and different areas of the body.
Pressure applied to the feet can bring relaxation and support the corresponding area of the body.
Reflexology may also help stimulate nerve function, circulation, energy levels, and the central nervous system, and may support prevention of headaches and migraines.
