Reflexology - the massage of reflex points on the body, particularly the foot - has enjoyed a surge in popularity in recent years. Its holistic approach, which treats the patient as a whole rather than simply a specific disease, and its emphasis on touch and contact, make it an attractive form of treatment in an increasingly impersonal western world. Describing the history and the principles of reflexology, this book explains how and why it works, with watercolour maps showing the important reflex areas both on the foot and on the body as a whole. It also tells how to promote health and relaxation, how to choose an examiner, and what to expect from a session.
