Reflexology
(foot massage)
Reflexology is a massage treatment that involves stimulating reflex points on the foot. Each of these corresponds with an organ or part of your body.
By gently stimulating and applying pressure to these points, your massage therapist can slowly work out and disperse the granules. This helps to reduce congestion or blockages in the affected areas of your body, as well as stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system.
Benefits of Reflexology to the Body:
-
decreased muscular tension
-
deep relaxation
-
lower blood pressure
-
removal of toxins and waste
Studies have shown that reflexology (combined with medical treatment), can improve immune function, shorten the duration of an illness or injury, speed up recovery, and help prevent its complications and recurrence.
Ionic Detox Foot Spa
An ionic foot detox is said to work by pulling the toxins out of your body through your feet.
This process is said to give the hydrogen in the water a positive charge. The positive charge is said to attract the negatively charged toxins in your body. The ions in the foot bath water supposedly hold a charge that enables them bind to any heavy metals and toxins in your body, similar to how a magnet works. This allows the toxins to be pulled out through the bottoms of your feet.
