Summary:This book succinctly introduces the benefits of foot reflexology and acupressure, the required tools and the theory behind the science. With 77 reflex zones and 66 acupressure points, the soles of the feet are essentially a map to the human body, each one corresponds to an organ, muscle or other potential problem area. By implementing reflexology and acupressure techniques, you may be able to alleviate pain and discomfort, fatigue, stress and symptoms of chronic disease. These techniques can be done anytime and anywhere, and require just a few minutes a day. With easy-to-understand language and more than 200 color photos and diagrams-including computer-generated maps to help you locate the points on your own feet, this book is a comprehensive introduction to reflexology and acupressure for beginners (or for those who don't have time to go to reflexology or acupuncture appointments).
