Reflexology is a gentle procedure in which therapeutic (manual) pressure is applied to the reflexes of the feet or hands causing a neural stimulus to be transmitted to the corresponding organs in the body.

This stimulation, in turn, activates various processes within the organs including:

• Detoxification
• Increased circulation of all fluids
• Relieved congestion and ultimate rebalancing of the organs

In order to achieve this homeostasis within the body for an extended period of time, regular Reflexology treatments are essential.

Some of the overall benefits of having regular Reflexology treatments include:

• Stress relief
• Allergy relief
• Reduction in back and neck tension
• Promotion of good sleeping habits
• Improved digestion
• Promotion of fertility

85% of our South African workforce are suffering from stress and stress related illnesses. Many companies have ‘Stress Management’ programs for their staff, however, only a few South African companies have actively addressed the ‘stress’ problem and included Reflexology in their staff wellness centres/programs.

The companies that have addressed the “stress” issue and offer Reflexology to their staff, as part of their stress management programs include:

• ABSA
• AngloGoldAshanti
• DeBeers
• J.P.MorganChase
• SABreweries
• Barker Insurance Brokers (Barker Management covers the cost for their staff to receive Reflexology treatments at work!)

Join the trend - get your workforce working optimally without their stress affecting your productivity levels.

Offer your staff Reflexology at work!
