Reflexology
Reflexology is a treatment where the therapist works reflex points in the feet, hands and ears. The reflex points are related to specific organs and glands within the body. Stimulating those reflex points helps promote health in that organ via the body’s energetic pathways. Pressure is applied in zones of the feet, hands and ears. The pressure is accompanied by thumb walking across the zones. Reflexology also incorporates relaxation techniques such as spinal twist, lymphatic drainage, etc. Some of the benefits of reflexology include but are not limited to:
- Total relaxation
- Increase in stamina and energy
- Better sleep
- Pain relief (backaches, headaches, neck, shoulders)
- Improves digestion and elimination
- Boosts immune system
Martha Montgomery graduated from BSOM in 1999, wondering, like private practitioners everywhere, how on earth she was going to cover all the costs associated with her practice, and afford to promote herself professionally. The Catonsville Wellness Center is the manifestation of her wishlist - the perfect office that would allow her practice to grow without crushing her financially, and the office that could support a thriving practice too!
