When stressed body defences break down and the individual become more susceptible to illness and disease. Reflexology reduces stress by generating deep tranquil relaxation, helping the body balance itself and allowing healing energy to flow. Blood needs to flow freely throughout the body carrying oxygen and nutrients to all the cells and removing the waste products of metabolism and other toxins. By reducing stress and tension, reflexology allows the cardiovascular vessels to conduct the flow of blood naturally and easily. By stimulating more than 7,000 nerves in the feet, reflexology encourages the opening and clearing of neural pathways. It interrupts pain pathways, reducing pain. SUSAN WARREN administers treatment and teaches CLASSES on the art of Reflexology.
Reflexology is the application of specific pressure technique on precise reflex points, based on the premise that reflex areas correspond to all body parts. Working on these points, the Reflexologist helps to activate the body healing and cleansing mechanisms, thereby bringing about a state of wellness and peace of mind. The Reflexologist uses the hands to apply pressure to the feet. Sensitive, trained hands detect tiny deposits and imbalances in the feet, and by working on these points the Reflexologist can release blockages and restore the free flow of energy to the whole body. This gentle therapy encourages the body to heal itself, often counteracting a lifetime of misuse. |
