Reflexology in Waterloo: Your Path to Relaxation
Welcome to Fridman Wellness – What is Reflexology and Why Should I Choose it?
Our earliest evidence of reflexology dates back to early Egyptian, Chinese and Indian Civilizations.
Studying reflex points on the feet, hands, face and ears helped shape the therapeutic methods used by reflexologists today.
The guiding principle is that these reflex points correspond to different, tissues, organs and glands throughout the body.
How does this make sense?
You have thousands of nerve ending on your hands, feet, face and ears which all connect back to one the central nervous system. It plays a fundamental role in regulating the body’s internal communication and helps govern involuntary processes such as heart rate, digestion, breathing, circulation, and muscular response.
This system includes two primary branches:
The sympathetic nervous system.
Commonly associated with the body’s stress response. In times of prolonged stress, the body may remain more oriented toward sympathetic activity, which can impede on our bodies ability to perform optimally.
Parasympathetic nervous system
Which supports relaxation, restoration, and digestion.
Reflexology is often incorporated as a supportive therapy to encourage relaxation and help the body move toward a more restorative parasympathetic state.
