According to the Reflexology Association of Canada, reflexology is a natural healing art based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet and hands which correspond to every part of the body. Through the application of pressure on particular areas of the hands or feet, reflexology is said to have benefits such as the relaxation of tension, improvement of circulation and promoting the natural function of the related area in the body, though there is some skepticism about such claims. Nonetheless, reflexology can release endorphins, and is pleasurable. Seek a reflexologist either through the International Institute of Reflexology or the Reflexology Association of America, or visit www.reflexology-research.com.
