Reflexology rests on the ancient Chinese belief in Qi, or “vital energy.” According to this belief, Qi flows through each person. When a person feels stressed, their body blocks Qi. This can cause an imbalance in the body that leads to illness. Reflexology aims to keep Qi flowing through the body, keeping it balanced and disease free. In Chinese medicine, different body parts correspond with different pressure points on the body. Reflexologists use maps of these points in the feet, hands, and ears to determine where they should apply pressure.

neuromuscular therapy
