Treatments to aid in healing physical and emotional problems by affecting subtle human energies have been practiced all over the world for centuries -- but the art of reflexology was developed here in the US only 100 years ago. Early practitioners theorized that, when intermittent moderate pressure was applied to specific areas of the feet, 'reflexive' positive responses could occur in their patients' organ systems. Kirsten van Gelder offers an integrative approach toward restoring balance to the body's energies. This has the potential to create a relaxation response, resulting in feelings of ease and expansiveness. Kirsten brings the knowledge and caring from over 25 years of clinical practice as a registered nurse and foot reflexologist. For stress reduction, relaxation, and a step towards wellness, try the rejuvenating experience of foot reflexology.
