Reflexology
Reflexology is the application of pressure techniques to the hands and feet to affect another part of the body. These techniques stimulate pressure sensors, triggering relaxation response throughout the body. Reflexology encourages good health, promoting relaxation, easing pain, preventing disease and improving quality of life. In this workshop you will find out about its principles and how it works.
History
"Among the world's oldest depictions of medical practices are pictographs of hand and foot reflexology."
From ancient times to the present day working the feet has been used by humankind as a means of maintaining good health and well being. Although the exact principles and techniques of its early use are no longer known, artefacts discovered by archaeologists indicate that reflexology has been developed as an aid to health by many societies around the globe from South America to Egypt, Japan, China and throughout Asia.
Zones
The theory underlying reflexology is called Zone Theory. It is similar to the concept of meridians in acupuncture. Just as meridians link one part of the body with another, so a combination of zone charts and maps connects the hands and feet to the organs and structures of the body.
