Reflexology

The physical act of applying pressure to the hand or foot with specific techniques made by the finger, thumb and hand or a reflexology aid. Reflexology is based on a ‘map’ of reflex zones on the feet and hands that mirror the body and thus, by applying pressure to these areas, those specific areas of ailments get treatment.
