| Reflexology is the modern name given to the long- established practice of using massage and pressure-point techniques on the feet (and sometimes the hands) to favorably influence the body, mind and spirit of the recipient. This form of holistic foot/hand massage developed independently among various cultures,including the ancient Egyptians, the Chinese, and numerous Native American |

| Reflexologists do not diagnose or treat specific conditions as such, but focus on inducing the Relaxation Response and dissolving Fight-or-Flight stress patterns, thereby assist- ing the body in maximizing its own innate healing abilities. Feeling better rarely feels any better than this. |

all sessions are administered with the intention of
helping the recipient find a place of revitalization,
harmony and flow. Rest replaces stress, and the
body responds accordingly.
