Trade ReviewNicola Hall's book is an excellent introduction to the practice of reflexology covering everything from its early beginnings in China 5000 years ago to how to find a reliable practitioner today.
If you are considering a reflexology treatment, Hall's book will inform you on what to expect from your practitioner as well as the principles underpinning the practice. She is one of the leading experts on the subject and has many years of experience, making her book an excellent and trusted companion.
In these times when more and more of us are seeking out complementary and alternative medicine rather than doping ourselves with expensive pharmaceutical drugs (not to mention their side effects), Hall's book comes as a welcome invitation to explore further this ancient healing practice. Highly recommended.
