Refloxology is an art and science based on the principles that reflexes on areas of the hands, feet, and ears relate to internal organs and other structures of the body.
Utilizing specific thumb, finger and hand techniques and based on a system of zones and reflex areas that reflect an image of the body on the feet and hands pressures is applied with a premise that such work effects a physical change in the body.
Reflexologists use reflexology charts that mirror a reflection of the body on the feet and hands, left foot or hand representing the body's left half and right foot or hand its right half. In reflexology practice, technique is applied to the relevant reflex area(s) to prompt a change in the related part of the body. Research has demonstrated such effects for several reflex areas and their reflected parts of the body including the kidney reflex area and the kidneys, the intestine reflex area and the intestines and the brain reflex area and the brain.
