Reflexology works on the simple premise that reflex points on the foot present a "map" of the rest of the body. By applying pressure to the different points on the foot, corresponding parts of the body can be affected positively. Using this simple premise and the techniques in The Complete Illustrated Guide to Reflexology, you can quickly aid your body in its own healing and relaxation.
