What is Reflexology?

Over the last years, there has been an increased interest for alternative, non-invasive health care.

One of those methods is reflexology. Reflexology is the science dealing with reflective points in the feet and hands that correspond to organs and parts of the human body.

Stimulating those points with special pressure techniques and manipulations releases the self-healing powers of the body and this way energizing, relaxation and equilibrium of the body is achieved.

Reflexology is a completely natural and risk free method of stimulating the self healing ability of the body, does not interfere with it, does not suggest or prescribe medication and has no side effects.

Today, after years of research and observations detailed reflexology charts are in place, with the reflective points for the feet, the hands, the ears (oto-reflexology), the face (face reflexology), even for the tongue and nose.

The reflexologist prefers to work on the feet because:
• They are softer whereas the hands are harder due to our daily manual tasks
• The blocked energy is easier to locate.
• The feet render themselves better to locate the various points and organs of the human body.

The Association was officially founded in 1992 under the name Association of Greek Reflexologists (A.G.R.) and is since based in Athens.
