What is a Complementary Therapy ?

Reflexology, Massage and Reiki are holistic complementary therapies. These therapies have been known to have been practised by various ancient civilisations like the Chinese, the Egyptians, the Japanese and the Native American Indians, as far back 10000 BC. Unlike conventional medicine, the holistic approach seeks to treat the person As a whole looking at all aspects of their lives, lifestyle, diet, occupation and emotions rather than just looking at and treating the symptoms of the current illness. A great Number of today's illnesses come about as a result of the stress and tension in there lives we lead these days. Following illnesses, stress, injury or disease, the body will very often be left in a state of imbalance, with the vital energy pathways blocked and this prevents the body and all its individual systems from functioning effectively.
