Reflexology

foot-reflexology

Reflexology is a natural healing art + bodywork technique.

During a Reflexology treatment the therapist strokes, massages + applies pressure to one part of the body to effect changes in another part of the body.

By using reflexology on the feet, hands, face and/or head, muscles relax and the body’s natural ability to heal itself is stimulated. Reflexology balances by relieving tension, improving circulation + promoting the natural function of the body.

Reflexology is based on the premise that there are energy lines that run throughout the body. These energy lines are invisible to the naked eye, however some clairvoyants can see them + have documented and painted them.

The Chinese healing traditions that have been recognized for thousands of years are based on energy lines. Also, there was a great deal of ‘mapping’ of these energy lines (and the reflex points) in the middle to end of the last century. This more scientific approach was mainly in the Western world.

Reflexology uses hands-on pressure techniques to stimulate, relax and/or subdue the natural flow of energy.

When energy is flowing in balance we feel happy and healthy. When the energy flow is blocked or out of balance we can feel tired, stressed-out + this can lead to disease.

The reflex points were discovered and mapped out by several different groups and this information is what leads to the distinctive Reflexology Foot Charts. Each chart will have some differences, based on the training, intuition and research of the chart’s developer.

For example, the Jacqueline Fairbrass School of Complementary Therapies uses the Fairbrass Foot Chart. This chart was developed by SchoolofCT Founder Jacqueline Fairbrass in 1995 and uses more Traditional Chinese research influence than many other charts.

And in 2004 the Fairbrass Hand Reflexology Chart was introduced after ten years of study and research.

Massage tends to be based on the Western anatomy and physiology approach to the body. Reflexology is based on energy lines, called zones and medians. Each school or association will have it’s own specialized routine.

The Fairbrass Reflexology Method was developed in 1995 and continues to be fine-tuned. It consists of a series of pressure techniques, some massage techniques, and although has some consistencies with other methodologies, is completely unique! Students learn to develop their sensitivity in both hands and intuition to be able to give a fabulous Reflexology treatment, whether on the Feet, Hands or Face.

Reflexology brings the body into balance, improves circulation and allows the body, mind, spirit and emotions to relax. Regular treatments keeps you Feeling Absolutely Fabulous!
