With roots tracing back to the medical practices of the Chinese and Egyptians, reflexology taps into more than just the feet, affecting all the regions of the body through targeted massage and pressure point work through the soles alone. The end goal is the create healing and decrease pain in the whole bodily system. Sounds pretty efficient, eh?
IO Foot Reflexology, a 30-minute soothing pressure point treatment is a worthy add-on to any IO Massage. Often misunderstood, reflexology is an ancient art that is more than a fancy foot rub. Each IO Foot Reflexology treatment begins with hot towels to soothe and cleanse. Luxurious In Fiore Pedicure balms in peppermint, chamomile or ginger are used to help heal depending on the client’s needs and constitution:
1. Peppermint is cooling and a classic choice for relieving overburdened feet.
2. Chamomile is calming and subtle and promotes grounding for body and mind.

Happy feet could mean a very happy whole entire body!
Be good to your feet,
Amy
