Ionic Foot Bath Cleanse

Sometimes, your feet just need attention RIGHT NOW. This is a basic video that demonstrates some of the strokes and techniques I use with my clients and on myself. This video is for entertainment/home use purposes only. I am not a massage instructor and have not studied reflexology beyond what I need for my massage clients. Please do not try this on yourself if you are pregnant or if there are medications or medical conditions with which this may interfere. About reflexology: Reflexology utilizes specific points on the feet that interact with organs throughout the body. It is often associated with Asian healing arts because sore points in the feet are said to be caused by blocked chi (qi, or ki- life energy) in the organs. Massaging those points in the feet can allow the chi to flow normally again through the body, promoting good health. Anecdotal evidence for many years has indicated its effectiveness, however Western-style medical studies have not shown it to be a reliable therapy. I don’t particularly care what Western science says as long as my clients are happy and it feels good on my feet when I do it to myself.

Telephone (+356) 270 40100 Holistic Reflexology is a specialised foot massage treating the whole person by using the feet (or hands) as “maps” to all the organs and systems of the body. Holistic Reflexology is a good-all round therapy and is also excellent for diagnosing imbalances and is especially appropriate for reducing stress levels. This type of treatment is also suitable for all age groups. Holistic Reflexology uses pressure points on the feet and hands, which relate to different parts or organs to stimulate the bodies own healing system. It can help the communication lines to stay open and the body, mind and emotions to stay healthy and works well for most conditions. Studies have shown impressive results when reflexology has been used to aid pregnancy and childbirth. It has also been found to be of particular benefit in dealing with congestion in various parts of the body. When an area of the foot is sensitive or sore to the touch, it indicates an energy blockage in the part of the body it refers to. Holistic Reflexology helps release this trapped nervous energy due to the 7000 nerve endings in the feet being stimulated. Toxins are removed and homeostasis (a balanced state in the body) is restored, thus helping the body to heal itself and providing much needed energy, through improved circulation.
