Reflexology or zone therapy, is a complementary therapy that adopts a holistic approach by treating a
person on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. It is a safe, non-invasive, natural therapy that
encourages the stimulation of the body's self-healing properties. This therapeutic foot massage includes
applying pressure to points on the feet that will relax the nerves, aiding the body to recover and heal its
imbalances.

systematic review found, "The best evidence available to date does not demonstrate convincingly that
reflexology is an effective treatment for any medical condition.

Stretched stress can lead to exhaustion and bad temper, a failing of the immune system and the
development of physical illness. Anything that one can do to reduce their stress levels has therefore

treatments can significantly reduce a person's level of stress, and increase their ability to cope with it.
Reflexology,can also be beneficial as a preventative measure for good health, in particular by
strengthening the immune system; if our immune system is working powerfully then we are able to
fight infection and disease more efficiently with the result that we become ill less frequently. It also
works on and improves the circulatory, nervous, respiratory, digestive and eliminatory systems. Regular
treatments help the body reach and maintain its natural equilibrium, thus aiding body systems to work
more efficiently together. Once you have experienced a treatment you will now how very relaxing it is,
bringing with it an overall sense of well-being.
The History Of Reflexology or Zone Therapy
The origins of Zone Therapy/Reflexology evidently reach back to ancient Egypt as evidenced by
inscriptions found in the physician’s tomb at Saqqara in Egypt.
Reflexology, which involves the working of reflex points in the feet or hands, can be traced back
thousands of years to ancient Chinese and Egyptian times.
Conclusion
Reflexology is a completely natural, non-invasive, safe therapy without the worry of harmful side effects.
Unlike conventional medicine which very often deals only with the symptoms of an illness, regular
Zone Therapy treatments can help deal with the root cause, be it physiological or psychological. It is an
excellent way of preventing illness by strengthening the immune system, and for general well being as
it works on all systems of the body to encourage a balance of energy and the stimulation of the body's
self-healing properties.
Reflexology, along with acupuncture, has been readily accepted in European countries for some time,
and many patients are now also finding success with it in the United States as well.
