This massage works on muscles all over the body and reflexology deals with unique touch techniques exclusively on nerve endings in the foot, hands and ears. Another difference is that clients stay fully dressed and do not turn over in the middle of a session. This profoundly increased the relaxation my clients said they felt. This method of reflexology is called Integrative Reflexology developed by master teacher Bill Flocco, Los Angeles.
The beauty of hand reflexology is you can do it yourself! Hands are also a complete map of our bodies, like feet. By working our hands, we can help our muscular, circulatory and lymphatic systems as well as everything inside our head, neck, chest, and abdomen.
The map for ear reflexology was developed in 1957 by a French physician, Dr. Paul Nogier. There are over 400 reflexology points on the ears and many are shared by reflexologists and acupuncturists.The ear reflexology points that create well-being and relax the shoulders and the lower back.
