This 52-card deck offers a concise, informative guide to the therapeutic practice of stimulating "pressure sensors" to relax and refresh the body. Most of the techniques, demonstrated with step-by-step photographs, are geared toward two-person sequen
However, with small variations and making use of the last cards in the deck, you can give yourself a calming session.
The deck contains detailed illustrations of the hand and foot, showing how the different areas of each relate to other parts of the body. The remainder of the deck is broken into "chapters" concentrating on a particular technique.
The authors have been involved in researching and teaching reflexology for 25 years and the cards are based on their book "Reflexology: Health at Your Fingertips." But better than a book, the portability of this deck allows you to practice relief virtually anywhere, making the cards an especially good addition to your work cubicle.
