Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress-related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. Reflexology is an effective tool for managing this stress, which translates into:
- Decreased anxiety
- Enhanced sleep quality
- Improved digestion
- Greater energy
- Improved concentration
- Increased circulation
- Reduced fatigue and pain
- Support stress mechanisms
This is why clients usually fall asleep during the session. The nervous system relaxes, the protocol resets it. In one hour, you get the benefit of a long and resting night of sleep, or even the benefit of some vacation time.
