Reflexology therapy is founded around the belief
that parts of the feet and hands
are related to other areas and organs of the body close to the same area.
When applying certain manipulation a practitioner
can dissipate the patients stress
within other parts of the anatomy.
Reflexology is a holistic treatment whereby the feet are manipulated
to help the patient heal as one not just the apparent problems.
Fairly recent data from China shows that hand and foot massage could benefit people enduring emphysema.
Foot massage therapy may aid in reducing the
pain suffered by patients
with bronchitis.
As with many other alternative therapys,
all reflexology is holistic because the whole body is treated as one.
After a treatment do try if you can to relax and benefit from the reflexology and check that large amounts of fresh water is taken.
