What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a gentle art, a fascinating science and an extremely effective form of healing. Combined with the element theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine, reflexology and meridian therapy work synergistically to bring the body into balance. Pressure is applied to reflex points in the feet only, which correspond to the organs, glands and joints in the body. Manipulation of these points and the six meridians which flow through the feet transmits a neurological and energetic message via the spinal cord. This creates a vibration throughout the system, breaking up congested molecules and allowing for more oxygen and blood flow to the cells. The result is an awakening of the body’s natural drive to heal and renew itself. While reflexologists do not cure or diagnose disease, reflexology can be effective in relieving the symptoms of many disorders, and can complement your regimen of conventional medicine.

The length of a treatment depends on each person, but generally a session is between 45 minutes and one hour. Your first appointment will last a little over an hour to provide time for a simple health evaluation and brief paperwork. Depending on your individual needs, it is generally recommended that you receive at least one session per week for 4 to 10 weeks. Cost per treatment lowers by up to 30 percent by purchasing a series.


Philosophy

In The Palms Reflexology is an individually owned LLC in beautiful Portland, Oregon. If you had asked me ten years ago what I’d be doing for a living, never in a million years would I have guessed that I’d be working with feet... but, I absolutely believe that things happen for a reason, and although some of my experiences have been much less than desirable, they led me to where I am now. Like most people who are called to the healing profession, my eyes were opened to this lifestyle because I also needed to heal. Now here I am, and I love it!

I am incredibly fascinated by reflexology and Chinese Medicine philosophy and never cease to be amazed by their wonders. It is my goal to share this passion and energy of life with each and every person I encounter and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to earn a living by helping others to heal. My intention is to nurture and acknowledge those that choose to receive reflexology in ways that aren’t normally addressed in daily life. I intend for my clients to feel safe and comfortable, and to leave feeling refreshed and renewed. I am determined to perform each treatment with intent and intuition, empathy and compassion.

Thank you, and happy healing!
