REFLEXOLOGY Reflexology is a preventive, non-invasive holistic system that is the equivalent of an internal massage. Applying pressure to points in the feet and hands stimulates or depresses the organs, controls the release of hormones and enhances cardiovascular performance. It is not clear why or how reflexology works--it simply does. A relationship between areas on the hands and feet and the body's organs, limbs, and nerves has been recognized for thousands of years by many civilizations. The body continuously strives to maintain a delicate metabolic equilibrium, but when this balance is disturbed by injury, disease, or the stress of daily life, it upsets the normal functions of the body, putting its health in jeopardy. Reflexology is a simple and noninvasive method for realigning these functions in order to help the body attain the metabolic balance that leads to health.
