Great Escape: The Calming Effects of Reflexology

“Reflexology is all about your nerves. If someone is getting on your last nerves, you need to soothe those nerves,” says Wendy Girl, owner of Reflexology Rocks in the Bishop’s Corner neighborhood of West Hartford.

Reflexology may be the ultimate “Great Escape” if you are plagued with a particular ailment, or if you just want an incredible foot massage that leaves you with an overall feeling of well-being. Reflexology uses gentle pressure, stimulating nerves in the feet to target specific neural highways which correspond to other parts of the body. It can alleviate stress and anxiety, as well as imbalances in the body which can cause insomnia or other disorders.

Reflexology Rocks is located at 2437 Albany Ave. Prices start at $55 for a 30-minute treatment, and monthly “lifestyle programs” are also available. Visit the website www.reflexologyrocks.com, call Wendy at 860-808-6844, or e-mail her at wg@reflexologyrocks.com.
