Barefoot Bliss Reflexology by Laura Putnam
Services: Reflexology, Reflexology with Reiki 60, 75 or 90 minute sessions available. - Do you suffer from plantar fasciitis, bunions or other foot pain? - Do you experience numbness, swelling or pain in your feet or ankles? ~Do you have difficulty relaxing, even during a massage? ~Are you on your feet all day? ~Do you have a high stress job? Allow your feet to receive the love, healing and attention they deserve… Reflexology will help you to relax, detoxify and de-stress. Reflexology works on the principle that by applying pressure to certain reflex areas of the foot, balance can be restored to the body by sending messages throughout the 7,200 nerves in the reflex zones of the feet. Laura will touch and massage the different zones to send signals to the body to relax that organ or body part. Reflexology supports all systems of the body and therefore improves the digestive, respiratory, lymphatic, immune, reproductive and endocrine systems. This helps the body to function at optimum levels and may prevent illness, supporting the body’s own ability to correct and heal itself. Reflexology is an art and science with roots in many cultures Nerve pathways in the feet communicate with the entire nervous system. Using thumb and finger walking techniques on the feet, the Practitioner connects with all parts of the body. Included are all the organs, glands and systems of the body, literally in inside to outside body treatment, allowing the body to help heal and correct itself. Benefits of a session include reduction of stress, tension and anxiety, increased blood flow, detoxification and a deep feeling of detoxification. Laura will be available by appointment on Tuesdays.
