Benefits of Reflexology treatment
For most of the people, reflexology starts showing benefits immediately once, the reflexology professional’s hand starts massaging the foot. However, few experience tiredness, weakness, need to urinate, and so symptoms; that too vanishes in the next session of reflexology massage and there after they can reap the benefits.
• Reduce the Stress - When stressed our body become more susceptible to illness and disease (As per American Medical Association, 85% of illnesses are contributed by stress). Reflexology reduces stress, helping the body regain balance and allowing self-healing. Once the reflexology massage starts, the relaxation begins, which is confirming by EEG brain activity.
• Improved blood Circulation - Blood needs to flow freely to the entire body to carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells and remove the metabolic wastes and other toxins. Many studies show that reflexology increases blood flow to the feet, brain, kidneys, and intestines, because reflexology relaxes the overall body, including cardiovascular system, and thus it pumps blood naturally and easily.
• Stimulates Nerve Function - Reflexology stimulates over 7,000 nerves in the feet and encourages the opening and clearing of neural pathways. Reflexology interrupts pain pathways and reduces pain.
