Foot reflexology is a healing technique based on the premise that the entire body - its systems and organs - is reflected through the feet.  Similar to Chinese acupuncture, it acknowledges an energetic component to each of us that consists of flowing pathways of energy that need to be moving unhindered in order for true health to be realized.

However, few of us go through our lives without some disturbance to this energy flow.  Intensity in our personal worlds as well as national stresses and disturbances constantly challenge our bodies' abilities to remain optimally functional.  Through the application of pressure and massage to the feet, blockages in this energy field are released, encouraging the body and mind to return to a state of balance and deep healing to occur.  It is a wonderful adjunct to any other therapy and does not interfere with other healing modalities or therapies.  It is not a tool for diagnosis and it is important to note that it is not a substitute for medical treatment.

Maureen Sher has been practicing reflexology for more than 12 years.  During this time she has enjoyed working with children, adults of all descriptions and in particular, pregnant women.  Good health can be maintained by having regular (monthly) reflexology treatments.  However, if a client is experiencing specific health issues or problems, a course of treatments in a condensed time is recommended for best results.

"In the twelve years that I have been practicing reflexology, I have never ceased to be amazed, delighted and often surprised at the positive results obtained through this gentle, relaxing but effective treatment.  The body's natural state is good health.   It knows exactly what to do to achieve it and reflexology provides a perfect context for the body to achieve its potential.  I have yet to meet one person who has not enjoyed reflexology."
