Item Description

Reiki and reflexology are all complementary therapies. Reiki is - a considered a manual healing method as well as an energy modality, and the practitioner holds their hands over or on the head, the neck, shoulders, abdomen, other parts of the body, usually for about five minutes in each area. The practitioner is actually a conduit for the energy. Reiki means universal energy, so it's energy from the universe.

Reflexology looks at the hands and the feet as the windows to the body. And, for example, what reflexology -- when a reflexologist looks at the soles of the feet, they actually see the entire body. There are reflex areas on the feet that tell us about that. Now, reflexology is not a foot massage. It's purposeful movement called bites and you walk across the foot; and areas of tenderness tell us information, give us information, about that person. And some people find that if they don't like massage, don't like touch, that the foot is a good place to do that -- or the hand -- that they can tolerate that and they find it helpful.
