Reflexology

Reflexology- Healing, soothing touch for the feet with its powerful effects on all systems of the body is one of the most popular and widespread therapies in the world. It can be readily adapted to any setting- home, hospital, clinic or spa. It is an excellent complement to conventional medicine as witnessed by its use in the Victoria General Hospital for cancer care. Spas and salons find it especially attractive because it fits right in with pedicures and beauty treatments- beauty being more than skin deep.
