Greetings!
Barbara Kunz spent a whole year walking on a cobblestone mat and has written on her experience. Will she continue. The answer is a resounding "yes". When people around you comment on how good you look it is motivating. Reflexology continues to grow at an incredible rate. We are seeing the results daily. It is a strange twist that in bad economic times reflexology flourishes. "Fish Reflexology" gets a big no from US cosmetology boards. These nibbling callus removers seem to scare these bureaucracies. Does Chinese reflexology have an image problem? Particularly now a days that torture has become a real issue the show, The Amazing Race, has given a tortuous portrayal of Chinese Reflexology. Is it an accurate portrayal?
