Facial Reflexology

 

What is Facial Reflexology and How Does it Work?

​

Facial Reflexology focuses on reflex points on the face, which help stimulate the body’s healing mechanisms and help improve circulation and nerve conduction, encouraging the release of toxins from the body via the lymphatic system.

​

Balancing reflex points in the face, connect to and help balance the entire body.  THE award-winning Bergman Method is clear and simple to understand; it has been developed over more than 20 years base on “Zone Therapy” which forms the basis for modern reflexology.  It was created by Dr. William Fitzgerald who studied Native Americans who used pressure point therapy to relive pain. 

​

Facial Reflexology uses a compression technique to stimulate reflex points I which the thumb or finger applies pressure, and also walks over a zone, in a caterpillar motion by bending and straightening whilst always maintaining pressure across the area.  The face provides a beautiful and precise tool to read what is going on within the body’s internal organs, central nervous system and neuro-biological systems.  The face’s close proximity to the brain and cranial nerves, especially make Facial Reflexology very powerful in impacting the body systems.
