Reflexology is an alternative practice involving the application of pressure to the feet, hands, and ears with specific thumb, finger, and hand techniques without the use of oil or lotion. It is not a massage, but more a pressure application, designed to target direct symptoms. It is based on a system of zones and reflex areas that when pressed, activate or stimulate certain corresponding areas of the body directly. For example, a specific spot on the base of the pinky finger could relieve symptoms in the arm and shoulder region, while pressing on the top of the big toe could relieve congestion and pain in the sinus region.
Reflexology differs from massage, Reiki or acupuncture. Massage manipulates the larger muscle groups, Reiki doesn't use an actual hands on approach, instead guiding the body's energy and subtle vibrational field which surrounds the body, and acupuncture uses needles to pinpoint specific zones and can be put anywhere on the body, not just the hands, feet and ears.
Millions of people around the world pair reflexology with more traditional methods of healing as an effective combinational approach to healing everything from anxiety to PMS to depression, and more serious health issues.
