What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a natural therapy using finger tip and thumb pressure on special points on the feet and hands that correspond to all parts of the body.
First discovered by the Chinese and Egyptians, three thousand years ago, Reflexology is now accepted world wide as an effective and complementary therapy treatment.
Baby reflex has created special techniques of Reflexology for Parents to give to the feet of their own babies and on the hands for the more mobile toddler with the added special appeal of well - known nursery rhymes and lullabys.
If you like using Natural therapies for yourself and your family, baby reflex gives you the opportunity of carrying out a fuss free five minute treatment at any time or location: in a cafe, on a bus, or even in a supermarket queue!
Whilst baby reflex aims to ease your baby's niggling pains and may help calm your fractious toddler,you and your infant can enjoy daily the natural bonding promoted by that gentle touch of baby reflex.
