I just realized that we are almost through with half of November, oh my…time flies.
We are very happy to share with you that
Nature's Lovers have been very busy with so many wonderful events in California; starting with being a part of Bel Air Film Festival, Halloween festivities in
Aadara Healing Arts, and celebrating birthday of luxury Spa:
Skin Body Lounge in Studio City. To all these events we brought what we do best -
Aromatherapy and
Reflexology or to be exact
Aroma-Reflexology. It is long overdue for me to write about Reflexology, because I fell in love with it after the first time I tried it back in 2005 and then decided to study and become a certified practitioner. During the last event, I was booked solid for 5 straight hours giving ladies mini aroma-reflexology treatments and without hesitation I must say, they absolutely loved every moment of it.
You may ask now what is Reflexology…?
Reflexology is all about manipulating reflex points on the feet, hands and ears, which correspond with various organs and systems of our body. Reflex points are used to stimulate, restore and balance the flow of energy throughout the body in order to promote natural healing and help our body to restore its’ natural balance.
One of my college instructors called Reflexology – “acupuncture without needle”, because Reflexology is thought to take its origins in the concept of traditional Chinese medicine, which is based on Qi (Chi) balance. Qi is known as energy that flows throughout our bodies via particular channels called meridians. The balance of Qi is a key to good health, however if there is a congestion or blockage of Qi flow, we may suffer from illness or discomfort.
Reflexology is proven to be helpful in many emotional and mental conditions like:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Stress
- Panic Attacks
- Mood Swings
- PMS
- many more...
. Combining Reflexology and Aromatherapy together can even help with insomnia; I have experienced it myself and have seen good results in many of my clients. Even serious conditions and illnesses may be lessened or alleviated through Reflexology:
- Asthma
- Allergies
- Arthritis
- Backache
- Digestive problems
- many more...
There was a study conducted in Denmark in 2007 about how Reflexology can help with infertility and other reproductive system issues, I’d say this is good news for many women everywhere. It was documented that Reflexology has shown to be helpful with following reproductive issues: irregular periods or ovulation, stress related infertility, endometriosis, blocked male tubes, poor sperm count and ovarian cysts
This is where I get extremely excited, because I combine Reflexology with Aromatherapy. It is a double benefit to any condition that needs to be alleviated. I found extremely helpful to make a therapeutic blend of oils right before starting Reflexology session with my clients. I usually take 5 minutes to discuss what kind of health issue bothers my client the most and then make a fresh blend to use during our Reflexology session.
Each session ends with hot lavender wraps on each foot to make oils penetrate the skin even deeper to enhance and speed-up their healing action in the body.
I have recently partnered up with Skin-Body Lounge in Studio City, CA where everyone is welcome to experience the benefit and pleasure of therapeutic Aroma-Reflexology sessions. Skin Body Lounge
