Reflexology is a unique system of foot and hand massage based on holistic principles and springing from the same Chinese roots as acupuncture. By  locating and applying finger pressure to the reflexology points on the feet and hands, which relate to the different parts of the body, we can correct the imbalance of energy which can cause stress and dis-ease.  People of all ages may benefit from this treatment.

Reflexology is a gentle art, a fascinating science, and an extremely effective form of therapeutic foot/hand massage that has carved an impressive niche in the field of alternative medicine.  It is a science because it is based on physiological and neurological study; it is an art because much depends on how skillfully the practioner applies his/her knowledge, and the dynamics that occur between practioner and recipient.     *   Christine Issel-Reflexology: Art, Science and History 


Myofascial Release:

Myofascial Release Therapy is an extremely effective hands-on technique that works by applying gentle sustained pressure to eliminate pain and restore flexibility and motion to the fascia (connective tissue).
Deep Tissue:

Using Deep Tissue we can assess the cause and type of conditions a patient presents, which is crucial to treating them successfully. This involves strong pressure used on "trigger points" and tendons to release contracted muscles and clear troubled areas.
Reflexology:

Reflexology is the art of touching points on feet, hands and ears that correspond directly with the organs, glands and other systems in the body. The reflex points communicate messages causing deep relaxation, detoxification, pain relief, stimulation of the immune and circulatory system, and facilitate an overall balance and well being.
