quintesensual Reflexology
Reflexology is a wonderful
method for activating the self healing powers of the body. The feet and hands mirror the entire body and every
organ and body part can be found in them. It is the use of special
techniques to break up and remove blockages in the body and restore proper
circulation of blood to any given area.
The focus of Reflexology is on the feet and hands where the nerve
endings are located. Over 7,000 nerve endings are stimulated in a
reflexology treatment. In these nerve endings, crystalline deposits form
wherever there is a blockage of blood or energy. With the special
techniques used in Reflexology, these deposits can easily be broken up and
released into the blood stream for proper elimination.
An amazing treatment, which needs to be experienced to be truly
appreciated.

Feet are Amazing! - It’s all in the feet
Feet come in all different shapes & sizes and it
is said that our true personality can be revealed in our feet.
I will incorporate ‘reading of feet’ into your
reflexology treatment.
Here are some examples of how the feet reveal our
true selves
* Your toes reveal your thoughts.
* The necks of your toes show your ability to express
your true self.
* The balls of your feet mirror your
innermost feelings.
* The arch of the foot shows how well you communicate
and your emotions
* Your Heels reflect Security & Confidence.
* Your right foot relates
to the past, and your left the present
The nine body systems stimulated by
Reflexology?
As already mentioned Reflexology is a pressure point
technique applied to the hands & feet, where all internal organs &
body structures are mirrored in miniature. Reflexology is a non
–invasive treatment, which helps the body maintain a delicate balance
between the bodies nine systems.
Skeletal
Respiratory Reproductive
Vascular
Muscular
Digestive
Neurological
Endocrine Genitalia
All these systems work in harmony to keep us in a
state of good health. Reflexology works on the theory of the body being
divided into ten longitudinal zones (or energy pathways) The zones are ten
lines running the entire length of the body & there are five
longitudinal zones running either side of the meridian (mid line). These
lines extend down the arms & legs to the hands & feet. The big toe
and thumb also have five energy channels each.
These zones are used to help map systems & organs
in the hands & feet (not visible to human eye)
Energy Chi or Qu (pronounced chee) flows through each
zone. It is when these energy zones become blocked, that the energy does
not flow & causes congestion – it is then that the disorder &
disease may occur.
The aims of treating reflex points is to enhance the
energy flow, which in turn allows or encourages the body to heal itself
and the systems to work in unison.
Tiny waste deposits or crystals can be found at
reflex points (especially joints) and these can be removed through normal
elimination process as they are broken down during treatment.
