Reflexology is a simple, safe and effective form of non-invasive, holistic healing.
It is based on the principle that all the organs, areas and parts of the body are represented by reflex points on the feet and hands.
By stimulating these points using fingers, thumbs and knuckles there will be a direct effect on the corresponding organ.
