Did you know that reflexology originated just about the same time as acupuncture?
No one in the West had heard of reflexology until an American ear, nose and throat specialist named Dr. William Fitzgerald, introduced it at the beginning of this century. He took the first steps toward dividing the body into ten reflex zones and 3000 years after its conception reflexology came to America.
In 1930, Eunice Ingham, a masseur, refined the “zone therapy” developed by Fitzgerald, to what is known today as reflexology. She was instrumental in charting the feet in detail to determine which part of the sole corresponded to which part of the body.
Reflexology can bring immense relief in the following areas:
- Pain relief
- Relaxation
- Assistance in getting rid of the body’s toxins
- Decrease in the number of headaches
- Nerve stimulation
- Relief of allergy symptoms
- Lessened fatigue, feeling energized
- Healthier immune system
- Insomnia
- Sense of well-being
