Massage Therapy
Massage therapy improves circulation by bringing oxygen and other nutrients to body tissues. It relieves muscle tension and pain, increases flexibility and mobility, and helps clear lactic acid and other waste from the body, reducing pain and stiffness in muscles and joints. It helps the body's stress response by lowering levels of stress hormones such as cortisol.
Reflexology Therapy
Reflexology or Foot Therapy is an ancient Oriental art based on the principle that there are reflex points in each foot which correspond to every part of the body. By applying acupressure and massage-like techniques to the feet, all other parts of the body are positively affected. Reflexology can and has conquered many health problems naturally while also serving as a form of preventative medicine.
"Massage and reflexology therapy have been shown to promote healing of all types. It stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal in problematic areas, softens the skin and underlying tissues, and promotes lymphatic drainage."
– Lu-Jean Feng, M.D.
