Reflexology

Many people assume Reflexology and a traditional foot massage are the same thing. While both focus on the feet and can feel relaxing, they are actually very different in purpose, technique, and intended benefits.

One question many people ask about massage options is what’s the difference between them. Here’s an overview of six widely practiced massage therapies and what makes each unique. Serenity Garden Massage and Tans, owned by Danielle Genter-Ray, offers these massage options and is a professional, caring massage therapist on Mount Desert Island, Maine, serving Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Somesville, Acadia National Park, and surrounding areas.

Reflexology is a gentle yet powerful holistic therapy that supports the body’s natural ability to heal and restore balance. Rooted in the idea that the entire body is mapped on the feet, hands, and ears, reflexology works through a system of reflexes that correspond to every organ, gland, and body part.
