Sydney reflexologist DORIS LITZKI writes about her specialist therapy ~ and how reflexology for your feet may appreciate a bit more love …
Ever thought about your hard working feet?
How they manage to get you from A to B all day every day without much complaint?
Right from the word go when you wake, your feet emerge from under the warm doona only to feel the cold floor. Then the trip to the bathroom barefooted.
After a few more drastic temperature changes they reach the shower, and out again, followed by a rushed step outside to fetch the morning paper over the wet lawn and back in again.
And we wonder when a sudden headache arises out of nowhere?
Foot Neglect is Self Neglect
Now the hurdle with the choice of shoes.
For some so narrow, so pointy, so high the feet can only gasp, hardly any room to move let alone air to breathe.
They are locked in for the next 10 hours straight without mercy, ending in red squashy, exhausted looking feet.
Blisters from new shoes count as extras, complementary of course, are the last straw the feet have to battle with.
How will you be feeling?
Mistreat your feet and you mistreat yourself.
Foot Love is Self Love
Consider a friendlier way and start treating your feet with kindness.
Remember they are your only ones. No chance for a second set that will grow miraculously when the old ones are written off!
So take a good look at your feet, give them a regular rub, footbath or massage, use reflexology when you need, and choose your footwear wisely. A small effort will bring you benefits ten fold.
Well treated feet equals a well treated you.
By doing good to your feet you’re doing good to yourself, combining body mind and spirit.
Reflexology grows in popularity each year. People queue for their turn at one of the many health expos in Sydney.
Five Thousand Years
Reflexology? What’s that?
Reflexology is a holistic and non invasive therapy dating back approx 5000 years. It works on the principle that the body is mapped on the feet, hands and ears.
Applied pressure on certain areas of the feet triggers a physical reaction which then stimulates the body’s own healing potential.
Reflexology promotes balance in the whole of your being.
Seven Thousand Endings
As the feet have more than 7000 nerve endings they respond well to reflexology.
Reflexology is not only balancing and soothing for the feet, it is calming and balancing the whole body.
A stress free body is more resilient to illness and maintains good health.
Treating your feet is treating your self.
Why not give it a fair go!
