Thairapy’s licensed massage therapist Chris has just completed a 10-week, 60-hour reflexology continuing education course at Sohmar in Downers Grove. “I learned so much to help my clients,” Chris said.
 
Reflexology focuses on healing and relaxing specific parts of the body via the reflex points in the feet and hands. The treatment also helps balance the physical, emotional, and chemical state of the body. There are 159 reflex points on the feet.
 
Reflexology might be a good treatment for you if you suffer from these common ailments.

• Sciatic nerve issues. Reflexology is a great treatment for someone who is having sciatic nerve issues.
• Plantar fasciitis. Rock taping, a method of reflexology, can help someone with plantar fasciitis heal quicker and feel better.
• Acute pain. Reflexology is great indirect treatment for someone who is suffering from an acute injury to the shoulder, neck, or hip.

 
“Reflexology has so much more amazing benefits other than feeling really great on the feet,” Chris said. “I am positive that you will not only enjoy it but feel the difference after one treatment.”
