Eastern Style Reflexology

Working the hands and feet is an ancient art that dates back to a variety of cultures. The earliest evidence of hand and foot massage was discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs, dating back to approximately 2330 BCE. The ancient Chinese worked the hands and feet to help maintain good health. The theory that one’s “Qi” or life force runs through 14 main meridians in the body, 12 of these either begin or end in the tips of the fingers and toes. Massage to these areas stimulates and balances the flow of harmonious energy in the body. There is also evidence of working the hands and feet to improve health in traditional Ayurvedic medicine which was developed in India and considered the oldest recorded system of healing dating back approximately 5000 years.

It promotes lymphatic and blood circulation with rhythmic movements along the legs, as well as nerve stimulation on all parts of the feet. The feet alone have over 7500 nerve endings and over 40 pressure points. Many of them connect to major organs, bones and joints. The therapist uses all parts of her hands to perform this massage, not just the fingertips. This is a great massage to have as a sole treatment, or as an add-on to a full body massage or perhaps a pedicure.
