What is Reflexology?

Where the “eyes are the windows to the soul” – the “soles of your feet mirror all systems of the body”.

Reflexology is a form of body work where your feet get worked on to try and affect positive health changes in other parts of your body. Initially, many people think of reflexology as massage therapy on your feet, but it is much more than that.

Reflexology is a holistic treatment, centuries old where the whole person is treated not just a set of symptoms. The premise is that there are “reflex points” and approximately 7,000 nerve endings in the feet that correspond to every body part, organ, system and gland of the body. By stimulating and firmly manipulating these various reflex points on your feet, a reflexologist can try to affect positive changes in your health.

The reflexologist uses firm pressure on these various foot reflexology points to balance the systems of the body. A huge bonus is it feels just fabulous, it is extremely relaxing and it induces a deep state of relaxation. By the “feel” of your feet and various reflexology points, astute reflexologists can ascertain if there may be something going on in an organ or body system. Diagnosis cannot be made, however areas of possible congestion and sensitivity can be identified.

Reflexology is a natural form of healing that promotes the body to re-align itself and to regain its natural state of homeostasis. This therapy can bring relief to a patient suffering from a long-term illness giving them a sense of wellbeing and easing their physical and mental stress. However, it isn’t necessary to have a condition to benefit as reflexology is deeply relaxing and stress reducing resulting in inner calm and increased energy.

Reflexology falls into the scope of a registered massage therapist’s (RMT) practice. So you can receive professional reflexology treatment at Renew You and use your extended health benefits!

Gail MacDonald, Registered Massage Therapist at Renew You, has been practicing reflexology for many years and has much experience with this modality. It is one of her favourite treatments to give clients. Plus since Gail is an RMT as well, you can “try” some reflexology as part of a regular massage therapy appointment. For example; you could book a 1 hour ($70-) or a 1 ½ hour ($107-) appointment for yourself and have half of it be massage therapy and half of it could be reflexology.

If you love massage therapy and you especially love to have your feet worked on, you will adore your appointments with Gail. Lastly, Gail also practices two other massage styles; Indian Head massage and Thai massage. So there is lots get excited about massage therapy at Renew You. And for birthdays, holidays & Mothers’ Day, we also offer gift certificates.
