Step Into knowing,
Stand in wellness.
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.

Meet Your Teacher,
One day, Emilee was in the kitchen making her daughter’s fifth birthday cupcakes, when an interview came on the old tube radio. The old speakers amplified a conversation with Dr. Oz. He was sharing that at the hospital where he did heart surgeries, it was required that all of the patients receive either acupuncture or reflexology before leaving the hospital. They were finding that with these modalities, rates of infection decreased, and rates of recovery increased. Upon hearing the interview Emilee recalls, “Fireworks went off in my mind! I knew this was the path for me. I immediately researched where I could go to school to learn reflexology, and found one just an hour drive away”. School began the following week, and with it, a newfound purpose…
What is Reflexology?
Emilee's understanding
There is a standard definition, however individually, reflexology is uniquely and authentically expressed through every practitioner. It is an art as well as a science. The art lies withing the tactile sensations of deposits found in reflex areas, and how a reflexologist senses, interprets, and works each deposit. Like any art form, time and practice are essential to building the technique and motor skills necessary to perform reflexology. The science of reflexology is measurable. It is an integration anatomy and physiology, organ systems, body mapping, and reflex responses.
