Reflexology is based on the concept that the whole body is interconnected and that imbalances in one part of the body are reflected in changes elsewhere.
Each organ, gland and nerve has a reflux on the feet. By massaging and manipulating the appropriate area on the feet, reflexologists treat common ailments such as back pain, digestive problems, migraine, menstrual problems, sinus problems and general stress and tension.
It has also been used for more serious illnesses such as heart disorders and multiple sclerosis. Reflexologists may also be able to detect impending illness and either give appropriate treatment, or refer the patient to specialist.
