Reflex zone therapy - Naturheilzentrum Huettmann

The American doctor William Fitzgerald (1872-1942) is considered to be the pioneer of reflex zone therapy.
From ancient knowledge of the Indians about reflex relationships in the body and pressure treatments, he developed a zone therapy, the forerunner of today's reflex zone therapies.
Reflex zones are created when disturbing impulses or other overloads of organs on skin, fascia, muscle, bone or joint capsules, teeth, ears, tongue, hands and feet are transmitted.
The reflex zones thus provide the first indication that something is not in order with an organ before cell damage or functional disturbances can occur. They form a so-called early warning system.

By manipulating the reflex zones by various hand and finger techniques, stimulation with needles or cupping glasses certain reactions (relaxation/vasodilation) are triggered in the corresponding areas of the body. Thus, the body can regain balance and the cells are again optimally supplied. Through reaching equilibrium, also called homeostasis, the organs can function normally again.
