If Sir Henry Head had not thought of a possible connection between the nerves on the soles of the feet and the rest of
the body back in the 1890s, then the principle of reflexology would never have seen the light of day. Head worked on the
idea that every area of the human body is represented on the soles of the feet. He managed to prove that there is a strong
connection between these areas and the internal organs. Using a special kind of thumb or finger pressure, the reflexologist
slowly massages the surface nerves of the sole, bringing about a reflex response. In this way, the reflexologist can easily
detect dysfunctions in the body. Unfortunately, reflexology is often mistakenly associated with foot massage, but it is in
fact far more complex. Reflexology not only helps to relieve patients from stress, but it also combats a variety of ailments.
Reflexology is earning its place alongside mainstream complementary medicine as more and more people turn to it.

(A)It involves the use of special instruments when treating patients.
