Reflexology has its roots entrenched in the ancient world, fascinating civilizations for millennia with its capacity to foster balance, wellness, and healing within the body. At 20 Orange Spa, we are proud to bring this age-old practice to our clients, spotlighting the potential benefits and soothing properties it might offer. But before diving into the rejuvenating features of our reflexology treatment, let's take a step back and explore what reflexology is, its origins, and its evolution through time.
What is The Ancient Healing Technique of Reflexology?
Reflexology, often coupled with massage, is a therapeutic method that involves the application of pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, and ears. These points are believed to correspond to different body parts and organs, creating a map of sorts. The practice purports that manipulating these points can help promote health in related areas of the body and overall well-being.
A Journey Back in Time
Delving into the annals of history, evidence of reflexology can be traced back to Ancient Egypt. Pictographs from the era depict individuals working on others' feet and hands, showcasing the relevance of this therapeutic technique even then. Ancient Chinese and Japanese cultures also valued reflexology and made it a part of their health practices, crediting it for promoting energy flow and correcting imbalances in the body.
Over time, reflexology traveled across continents and evolved. In the early 20th century, it gained considerable momentum in the west, all thanks to Dr. William Fitzgerald, the "father of reflexology." He carefully studied reflexology's principles, dividing the body into 'zones,' correlating them to specific areas on the feet and hands. His research set the foundation for modern reflexology as we know it.

The ancient healing technique of reflexology aims to provide relaxation, promote better sleep, reduce anxiety, increase circulation, and create a sense of overall wellness. Given that each point on the feet and hands is said to represent a specific part of the body, manipulating these areas could help alleviate symptoms in other areas, creating a ripple effect of relief throughout the body.
