Reflexology makes feet happy

Did you know that most people take between 8,000 and 10,000 steps every day. That’s a lot of wear and tear on the tissues and bone structure of your feet.  Since your feet contain over 25% of the body’s bones and over 7000 nerve endings, when our feet are tired or hurt it tends to be reflected in the whole body.

Most people will walk about 185,000km in their lifetime and if your job requires you to spend a lot of time on your feet, then you’re “mileage” may be even higher.  The feet are the one area of your body that you can pamper that will help you to feel better all over.

So how can we keep our feet in optimal condition? The answer is a holistic foot treatment called Reflexology.  Reflexology dates back to 690ad and originated in Japan. It was brought to North America approximately 85 years ago and was then called Zone Therapy.

The benefits of having Reflexology done on your feet are numerous.  Not only does Reflexology refresh and revitalize all the muscle tissues in the feet, it improves circulation and allows the recipient to completely relax and de-stress.  Many people who have Reflexology for the first time can’t believe how much better their feet feel and many people who spend time at work standing for long periods of time say that their feet feel much better for days.

Reflexology is much more than a foot massage. Certified Reflexologists have very specific techniques for stimulating reflex points in the feet (much like acupressure) that correspond to all the glands and organs of the body.  Sometimes the Reflexologist may find imbalance in a particular reflex and will then work that point to restore balance. This helps to restore an overall sense of balance and well being. 

Moments Of Magic – Optimal Mind & Body provides both 30 minute Reflexology Massage and 60 minute full Reflexology sessions.  The 30 minute sessions are great for people who spend a lot of time on their feet and would like to have sessions more often to keep their feet feeling great.  The 60 minute sessions focus more specifically on each reflex point and restoring balance from a holistic point of view.  Both sessions are extremely relaxing.
