A Brief History of Reflexology
Reflexology is a respected healing practice with a history that extends back thousands of years, originating in ancient Egypt, China, and India.

In contemporary practice, reflexology is recognized as a valuable complementary therapy, assisting individuals in managing stress and supporting their health naturally.
