Natural Healing with Reflexology is an impressive book. It brings past and present together, enabling the reader to appreciate the longevity of this remarkable science. The style is down to earth, and woven with remarkable anecdotes - even American President James Garfield indulged in this therapy for health. And that is what is clearly defined. For the lay person trying to get one's head round the idea that pressing areas on the feet can help improve constipation or remove stress is unbelievable. But the technique is uniquely explained in this book, which describes how reflexes and anatomy work together to achieve this. It explains the holistic stance, with extraordinary examples of its meaning and links to the energy field that promotes self-healing. And there are hands-on exercises for practice on family. Throughout its pages the natural element for good health is pursued. And food values are assessed, pointing out 'must haves' and 'have t'. An informative summary t only provides awareness of hidden additives harmful to health, but also lists food particularly beneficial to reducing cholesterol, lowering blood pressure and protecting the heart.

Author Biography
Ann Leighton was born in London where she grew up and trained to be a beauty therapist. She specialised in exercise and body massage which in 1980 led to her managing the Health Complex at The Berkeley Hotel, Knightsbridge. But health and well-being were central to her ethos which encouraged a career change to teach students enrolled on Higher Diploma Reflexology Courses and at the same time allowed her to run her own practice.
