What's hand reflexology and its benefits?
Hand reflexology is an holistic and natural form of massage therapy, that can target your key body zones from the palm of your hand. It may be considered a healing zone body therapy, and is a popular choice for self-massage and holistic medicine. Its actual definition is a source of ongoing debate amongst massage therapists, but it is offered as a service by many professionals and spas. Hand reflexology defines specific zones, pressure points, and energy centers located on the palm and backs of your hands; when these areas are massaged appropriately, different organs and functions of the body are affected.
The art and science of reflexology massage dates back centuries and generations in the Far East Asian and Middle Eastern cultures. Massage and holistic medicine are common practice on these continents, and ara often a core part of a culture's spiritual belief systems. From yoga, meditation, self-massage, and natural pathways to relaxation and enlightenment, these cultures have practiced hand reflexology techniques for hundreds of years. |
