Reflexology

Reflexology Studio

Reflexology is a gentle foot massage with the goal of encouraging a beneficial effect on other parts of the body, and to improve blood circulation, general health and relaxation.

The precursor of modern reflexology was introduced to the United States in 1913 by William Fitzgerald, an ear, nose and throat specialist, and Dr. Edwin Bowers. Fitzgerald claimed that applying pressure had an anesthetic effect on other areas of the body.

Reflexology was further developed in the 1930s and 1940s by Eunice Ingham, a nurse and physiotherapist. Ingham discovered that the feet and hands were especially sensitive, and mapped the entire body into "reflexes" on the feet. It was at this time that "zone therapy" was renamed reflexology.

Why not call today and discuss your needs and how reflexology can help you.

I look forward to hearing from you.
