At times, a reflexology tool may be used to add to the effectiveness of the therapy. There are over 7,200 nerve endings located on your feet that correspond to your body’s glands, organs and systems. By stimulating the reflex points on the feet, issues such as stress, migraines, breathing and digestive problems are relieved. It boosts circulation and is a beneficial therapy for diabetics.
