Reflexology An Overview

Most of us believe that a massage calms a stressed mind and body. Whenever the city lifestyle gets into our nerves, many of us run to massage parlours to have ourselves de-stressed. While this is the traditional idea behind massages, there is another kind of body massage that is said to heal and improve even the internal organs of the recipient of such therapy. This form of unorthodox massage is known as reflexology.

Said to have begun as early as 2500 BC during the timelines of ancient Egypt, ancient China and ancient Japan, reflexology is indeed an interesting form of treatment. Reflexologists believe that every organ in the body is represented on the various areas of the hands and feet. Because of this connection, they diagnose abnormalities in the body by putting pressure on the feet and hands. When they do that, the organ linked to the point where pressure is applied gets stimulated. Once the energy flows freely into the organ, blood circulates smoothly in and out of it – relieving the person from various internal ailments.
