At the FHT, we recognise the powerful impact this Holistic Therapy can have on overall wellbeing—and we invite you to join us in celebrating this unique modality!

What is World Reflexology Week?

Held annually in September, World Reflexology Week unites Reflexologists and Holistic Therapists across the globe to raise awareness and promote the many benefits of Reflexology. It’s a dedicated time to inform the public about this natural therapy and its potential to support health and wellness.

Reflexology is rooted in ancient traditions, with origins tracing back to Egypt, China and India. The practice is based on the principle that specific points on the feet, hands and ears correspond to different organs and systems within the body. By applying focused pressure to these areas, Reflexologists aim to trigger the body’s natural healing processes and restore internal balance.

The Benefits of Reflexology

• May Help with Stress Reduction: Reflexology is championed for its ability to reduce stress and promote relaxation. The gentle pressure applied during a session may help calm the nervous system, allowing the body to release tension and anxiety
• May Improve Circulation: Reflexology is said to enhance blood circulation, which is crucial for delivering oxygen and nutrients to cells.
• May Promote Pain Relief: Many people turn to reflexology to alleviate chronic pain conditions, such as migraines, back pain and arthritis. By targeting specific reflex points, reflexologists can help reduce pain and discomfort.
• May Enhance Wellbeing: Regular reflexology sessions may lead to a sense of overall wellbeing. Clients often report improved sleep, increased energy levels and a greater sense of balance in their lives.
