Body balance, deep wellbeing
Reflexology uses gentle pressure on foot and hand reflex points to encourage relaxation, ease stress and support your body’s natural equilibrium.
About this specialty
Reflexology is an ancient therapy rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. By working specific points on the feet and hands—linked to regions and organs—it promotes a sense of wellbeing. Tenderness or small deposits in these points can highlight imbalances and guide targeted pressure to support homeostasis (Baumann, 2004).
