What is Reflexology?

 Reflexology is an ancient healing art that activates the body’s own natural healing powers. It is known to have been practiced as early as 2500 B.C., with versions of reflexology performed by all cultures of the world. Not just a foot massage Putting pressure on the reflex points of your feet stimulates flow throughout body by activating the 7200 nerve endings of the feet, the meridians and body zones to open and balance neural pathways. Neural pathways are the inner thruways that allow one area of your nervous system to communicate with another.

 Modern reflexology was started with zone therapy by Dr Fitzgerald which later grew into foot mapping by Eunis Ingham considered the Mother of modern-day reflexology. The International Reflexology Institute was founded by Eunice and then run by her Nephew Dwight is and still open today though sadly Dwight has just passed August 29,2020.

Vanessa has been trained in Reflexology under this lineage by her mentor who was trained by Dwight.

Reflexology Helps in Stress Management

 It has been estimated that over 75% of all illness is stress related. When we do not handle stress well, the body’s defenses break down and we become more susceptible to illness and disease. Reflexology reduces stress by generating deep, tranquil relaxation. By stimulating the nerve endings, it helps the parasympathetic nervous system to reset.

Reflexology helps the Immune System

 The immune system functions at its peak when the body is relaxed and free of stress by stimulating the reflex points helps the nervous system to reset. The Lymphatic system helps the body Immune system The lymphatic system, kidneys, colon, and skin are mechanisms the body uses to cleanse itself.

If they become blocked or function improperly, toxins and waste matter build up. By deepening relaxation and balancing energy, all of these systems begin to work efficiently.
