The History of Reflexology
Evidence suggest that Reflexology dates back over 4000 years ago from the time of the Egyptians. A wall hanging was discovered in tomb at a large burial ground dating back to 2330BC which depicts two figures giving what is clearly Reflexology. It was thought to have spread put through the Roman empire to other countries as what we know Reflexology to be today.

What is Reflexology
Reflexology works on the belief that the feet are a mirror image of all the organs, glands and parts of the body. Zone theory is how reflexology works, the body contains 10 vertical zones, each zone contains different body parts that corresponds to the specific areas of the fingers and toes.
Practitioners of the zone theory believe that applying deep alternating pressure to the corresponding zones on the feet or hands it can be an aid to alleviate the problem. Reflexology uses the holistic approach to treat the whole person, the body, the mind and the spirit.
While Reflexology can provide relief for many physical and emotional ailments it is essential to understand its limitations and it is not a cure, it works as a complimentary therapy that supports the body’s natural healing process.

Hands or Feet
Hands or Feet? Hand Reflexology is ideal for a person who cannot have foot Reflexology. The reflex zones on the feet are also mirrored on the hands, if you have a contraindication to foot reflexology i.e. an injury or infection or even or even if you do not like your feet to be touched then working on the hands is just as effective. Reflexology on the feet however can offer a more in-depth and thorough treatment. Foot reflexology may be the ideal option for those looking for a deeply relaxing, stress reducing treatment and to promote overall body balance.
The extensive network of reflex points in the feet allows reflexologists to address various health concerns in a single session. This makes foot reflexology particularly effective
However, if you are seeking a more flexible and easily accessible approach, hand reflexology maybe better suited to your lifestyle. Hand reflexology offers unmatched convenience for a quick relaxation session

Balances hormones - Helps in hormonal regulation.

Hormonal imbalance is a result of stress. When we undergo stress, our bodies release a certain type of hormone called cortisone as a natural way of responding to danger. When this takes place, there is a chance that our heart rate will also raise and the bronchial tubes will likewise become dilated. This can result to negative effects on our immune system, high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction in men and PMS in women amongst others. Apart from stress though, it has to be noted that hormonal imbalance may also be a result of nutritional deficiency. It is important then to watch out what you eat to keep your hormone levels in tip top shape at all times.
The Reflex points that can help to regulate those hormones,
The hypothalamus
The thyroid gland
Parathyroid glands
The Pancreas
Adrenal Glands
