reflexology

Reflexology shares many fundamental concepts with acupressure and other energy medicines, but holds that the feet are the key to health. Different zones of the feet, which correspond roughly but not exactly to the meridian points used in acupressure and acupuncture, are believed to be connected to different parts of the rest of the body, and associated with particular glands and organs.

By manipulating and massaging the various zones, reflexologists assess and correct the flow of energy through the zone, thereby treating problems in the associated organs. It is used to relieve pain and stress, improve circulation, and treat migraines, digestive problems and chronic conditions (which require long-term reflexology treatment).
