| DESCRIPTION: |
A registered Therapeutic Reflexologist is a complementary healthcare therapist treating patients
according to an ancient science and therapy, dealing with the principle that the body is mirrored through
reflex areas on the feet, hands, ears and other parts of the body and these correspond to all organs,
glands and parts of the body. By using the thumbs and fingers on the reflex areas the body is assisted
to attain homeostasis, balance or normalisation of function and this in turn creates a change in the
health and well-being of the patient. Therapeutic Reflexology is a non-invasive therapy. |
