Ancient Healing for the Modern World
Stimulating the feet for healing purposes is known to have been part of the ancient health care modalities used by our ancestors all over the world. Many ancient cultures directly connected the health of the body to the health of the feet. Integrative Reflexology® is a four-theory approach to reflexology: Structural Alignment Theory, Zone Theory, Meridian Theory and Psychoneuroimmunology Theory. Each serves as a different lens for understanding how reflexology works and how we can view the body in a holistic way, honoring its complexity. This approach creates space for the body’s innate wisdom to provide the healing offered through an Integrative Reflexology® session. This innovative whole-hand approach is gentle on the thumbs, fingers and the practitioner’s body.
