Foot reflexology is an ancient form of therapy; documentation that is at least 4500 old exists in China and Egypt.
The Indians practice the method, as was empirically researched and summarized by the American MD Dr. William Fitzgerald (1872- 1942), to this day.
Foot reflex zone massage helps to heal disturbed organ and tissue functions; reflexology improves the self-healing power of the body and can be applied to regulate the immune system, menstruation cycle, muscular imbalance and more.
Within the foot are different areas, which correspond to a specific part, gland or organ of the body. Through the application of pressure on these foot reflex zones, a stimulus is produced that helps to regulate the natural function of the related area of the body.
Foot reflexology can be performed either in a session on its own or combined with a massage or facial treatment.
Health insurance: Some of the Swiss health insurances will reimburse the treatment, if you have insurance cover for alternative medicine. It is best to enquire at your insurance company. I am registered with EMR and EGK. Helsana does not reimburse the modality foot reflexology.
