Reflexology Basics

Reflexology is a natural healing technique that refers to the stimulation of the feet, hands or ears in order to affect other parts of the body to enhance the natural healing processes. This stimulation is believed to have a positive effect on a person's health and well-being and can help relieve stress and muscular tension, improve blood supply and circulation, and encourage the unblocking of energy/nerve pathways.

Anyone can easily learn how to use their fingers and thumbs on the feet or hands to improve the health and well-being of themselves and others.

Class Dates - TBD from 7-9PM ($39)
