 | FOOT REFLEXOLOGY Is based on the thought that body and mind are connected in a harmonic way and are of one form. Foot reflexology is working in a regulating way on health. The reflexologist will take both the psychological and physical sides of a person into account for their recovery. Sickness can possibly develop by thinking or acting in a wrong way or by suppressed and unprocessed emotions. As a result of this, gradually a blockage or break in the energy lines to the different organs could develop. By treating the reflex zones, the disturbed balance can be restored. Just like in acupuncture one assumes in foot reflexology that energy lines run through the body, and some of them end in the feet. The reflex zones in the feet correspond with organs, muscles, bones and tissues. By treating these reflex zones, impulses will travel to the related organs, by which blockages can be removed and energy can flow freely again. Harmony and cooperation between body and mind can be restored in this way. The treatment also makes the client aware of the indissoluble connection between body and mind. Could one also make a diagnosis? One thing that is not possible is to make a diagnosis at the foot. Pain or deformities of the skin do not mean that there is a badly functioning organ at the corresponding reflex zone. In the first place it is the intention that a massage works mainly through relaxation. Perhaps it is the case that 80% of all our complaints are being caused by stress. By relaxing, both physically and spiritually, many of the complaints can disappear. Foot reflexology is a treatment that can be very well used for combating pain. An accidental consequence of foot reflexology is that this massage combines pretty well with other forms of massage therapy. Which things are included during a treatment? Total flow of blood Flow and cleansing of the lymphatic vessels Flow of energy (vitalizing) Increase of resistance (spiritually and physically) Regulating of organ functions, muscular-and lymph activity, hormonal balance Stomach-, intestine- and digestive complaints Rheumatism, joint pains, blood pressure, heart palpitations Hyperventilation, anxieties | [/b]
