What Is Reflexology, and How Is It Different From a Foot Massage? | South Edmonton
Reflexology is a focused pressure technique for the feet and hands. Here is what it is, what a session is like and who should avoid it.
What is reflexology?
Reflexology is a relaxing technique where a certified reflexologist applies pressure to specific points on the feet (and sometimes hands) that are mapped to different areas of the body. Many people in Edmonton use it to de-stress and feel more balanced.

What happens during a reflexology session?
You relax fully clothed in a reclining position while your reflexologist works on your feet with thumb and finger pressure. Most people find it calming, and some fall asleep.

What's the difference between reflexology and a foot massage?
A foot massage focuses on relaxing the muscles of the feet, while reflexology uses specific pressure on reflex points based on a map of the whole body. Both feel great, but reflexology follows a structured method.

Who should avoid reflexology?
Let us know if you have foot wounds, infections, blood clots, recent foot injuries, or are in early pregnancy. Your reflexologist will review your health history before starting.
