The concept of reflexology holds that various organs, nerves and glands in your body are connected with certain "reflex areas" on the bottom of your feet, hands and other areas of the body. Moreover, this philosophy claims that by massaging these corresponding areas, prompt relief from a variety of conditions in the body can be obtained. The medical definition of reflexology is "the study of reflexes". Reflexology is the treatment by manipulation (or other means) applied to an area away from the disorder. Reflexology applies the stimulus/reflex principle to healing the body. The foot has been mapped to show what areas to contact to affect specific areas of the body. There are many nerve endings on the feet and hands that correlate with acupressure points, which, when stimulated, trigger the release of endorphins and other endogenous chemicals. Reflexology has been highly effective in releasing toxins and injuries to the body. Mary Miles (LMT. NM # 3099) has several years of reflexology practice.
