REFLEXOLOGY is a complementary therapy based on the understanding that certain reflex areas on the feet and hands correspond to our organs, glands and other body parts. Reflexology involves gentle and therapeutic massaging of the feet (and sometimes hands too) to encourage and activate the body's innate ability to heal itself. The principles of reflexology have been practised for thousands of years. Ancient illustrations and cave drawings throughout India, China and Egypt depict early forms of the technique. The major goal of reflexology is to restore the balance and flow of life energy throughout the body by applying pressure to strategic points primarily in the feet.

 

 

AFRICAN REFLEXOLOGY though following the same principles described above is carried out using a lighter touch giving deeper relaxation. It gently touches mind, body and soul, allowing for the possibility of a more profound healing.

Workshops on Complementary Therapies such as Reflexology are regularly presented at The Amber Healing Centre by qualified practioners of Alternative Therapies. Please contact Michelle for further information.
