| FOOT REFLEXOLOGY |
| RELIEVE STRESS AND TENSION, PROMOTE HEALING, AND ENJOY DEEP RELAXATION THROUGH THIS ANCIENT HEALING PRACTICE |
We are constantly on the move; walking, running, playing and working. Hectic schedules produce a tremendous amount of physical and mental stress, and as a result we continually search for ways to reduce tension in our lives.
Reflexology is an ancient healing practice that has been relieving stress for people around the world for more than 4000 years.

| Reflexology can be described as a drug-free form of managing and alleviating physical and stress-related conditions. It has been found to work best when the applications are consistent, and has gained popularity because it can be self-applied practically anywhere. Reflexology uses many basic massage techniques, but focuses on principles similar to acupuncture, such as using the thumb and fingers to find spots on your feet and hands which are considered to "reflect" important bodily organs. |

| Our walking mats are shown below, but see also our selection of Powered Massagers (link on lower left) that are very suitable for reflexology areas on the feet. |

| FOOT REFLEXOLOGY WALKING MATS |
There are over 7,000 nerve endings in the feet. These nerve endings have interconnections through the spinal cord and brain with all areas of the body. According to Traditional Chinese Holistic Medicine and the principles of Reflexology, appliying pressure to "acupoints" on the soles of the feet benefits other parts of the body that are connected through the nervous system. With its history rooted in "cobblestone walking", use of a walking mat with knobs or stimulation points is a popular means of targeting acupoints on your feet.
Aside from Reflexology, using a walking mat provides a stimulating massage for the soles of your feet, and leaves you with a relaxed feeling of well-being.
