Reflexology is a science that deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands organs and parts of the body. Reflexology is a unique method of using the thumb and fingers on these reflex areas.
Reflexology relieves stress and tension, improves nerve and blood supply and helps nature to normalise (bring about homeostasis) and balance. Reflexology may also help to relieve pain and tension.
Stress has a negative affect on insulin and hormone levels. If you are suffering from type II diabetes or are pre-diabetic, reflexology may help.
There are over 4,200 nerve endings in each foot.
In European countries such as Germany, reflexology is used by some hospitals to assess a persons health before undergoing surgery to avoid expensive pathology tests. Reflexology has a very long history. In India, a country whose history has largely been shaped by religion, the feet were thought 5000 years ago to symbolize the unity of the entire universe. The Sanskrit symbols depicted on the feet of Buddha were seen as expressions of a higher reality.
Many years of research and experience has shown us that in most cases 6 sessions, in close succession (i.e. over 6 weeks), greatly improves the chances of success. This is not the case for everyone as some cases require less and others more. It does depend on the state of your being and the outcome desired.

Most of the above therapies have been around for 5,000 years, others hundreds of years and others decades these therapies have continued on stay because they have worked and are healing diseases and not just managing diseases.
The removal of rebate came into effect on 1 April 2019 however many natural governing bodies have been working hard to have the private health funds reinstate rebates for services previously covered.
