Reflexology

Reflexology is a type of massage that involves applying different amounts of pressure to the feet, hands, and ears. It’s based on a theory that these body parts are connected to certain organs and body systems. There are a couple of different ideas on how it works by working your flow of Qi or nerve connections through the skin to your organs. Either way, this is an incredibly relaxing and wonderful treatment with some amazing results. 

Reflexology is linked to many potential benefits, but only a few of them have been evaluated in scientific studies.
