The Ingham Method of Reflexology is used
primarily to reduce and eliminate the harm done by stress,
illness, or injury. Under these circumstances, muscles in the body
secrete acid that crystallizes around and over nerve endings at reflex
areas – a condition called “congestion” in reflexology.
The Reflexologist clears the congestion, thereby restoring the nerve
circulation to the affected glands, organs and body parts and
relieving the uncomfortable symptoms they produce – pain, fatigue,
stiffness, weakness, inflammation, anxiety, constipation, dry skin,
and more.
Discomfort is the body’s signal that it is trying to heal itself.
When I manipulate an area that reflexes to the body part that is in
trouble, your body’s health response is pain. Therefore, the
identification and treatment of the ailment are simultaneous.
"There is only one
disease, physical or mental, and its name is congestion."
-Eunice Ingham
What the Reflexologist does: Using only my hands and fingers,
I apply pressure therapy to your hands and feet. Although reflexology
is not massage, it often is relaxing. Unlike massage, you
actively participate in your own treatment by responding to my touch.
Together, we identify painful reflex points and they eventually
become pain free as I relieve congestion and your body heals
itself.
Aftercare: I teach you techniques and give you a personal plan
for
self-treatment at home.
