Did you know that one of the main causes for illness is toxic overload? Junk food, pollution, and toxic chemicals clog the system with harmful substances and interfere with cellular function. Accumulation of toxins in the body is one of the leading causes of various types of cancers, heart disease and strokes, asthma, acute bronchitis, and more. Detoxification has an important role in better health and promoting a stronger immune system. Periodic detoxification of the body helps in reducing the risk of these chronic diseases. The benefits of reflexology are innumerable and it also helps in flushing out toxins from the body by stimulating qi flow through the important organs involved in detoxification – liver, kidney, colon, lungs, and skin. This leads to a more efficient system of eliminating toxins and other foreign substances, thereby protecting your body from the various diseases and health conditions that can often arise from a compromised immune system.
