It started in Singapore :

A Stimulating Walk On A Garden Path

Reflexology Garden Pavers stimulate and massage the soles of your feet and hit acupressure points that connect to various points in your body.

Generally speaking a reflexology path is a grouping of smooth and bumpy stones arranged pleasingly and embedded in concrete or sand.  The point, is to massage the bottoms of your feet as if you were having a massage by a reflexologist.  It is not the same interactive experience as a professional reflexology session but you do not need an appointment and you can have Reflexology pavers in your yard or local community and try it out for short periods a few times a day or week.

Until I went to Singapore I knew nothing about reflexology paths. For amusement one day, I took my shoes off and walked on the irregular surface of stones, arranged in a variety of beautiful patterns. For sometime later, I could feel the tingling in my feet, legs and back up to my shoulder blades. I was overwhelmed by the effect. It really felt good, invigorating and my Reflexology Pavers idea was born!

Initially you may experience discomfort. I winced and hopped and said “ouch” repeatedly. Afterward I experienced such an energy boost all down my back. A vibrating sensation. It lasted for hours and I was sold on the idea that I felt more alive. With repetition you will begin to overcome any discomfort and welcome both the initial stimulation but also the residual effects. Personally I enjoy that spine tingling feeling that lasts for hours. And hopefully my immune system is stimulated as well.

I have created a way to put a A Reflexology Foot Path in your garden with little more effort than laying a path of garden pavers. You can have a wandering path or a meditation circle to walk around on.  You will enjoy the benefits in any configuration including a foot path like in Asia.  The Sea Shells have been carefully chosen and placed for even exposure to all your acupressure points.  They are made of concrete and sealed for years of protection. I chose smooth shells and more irregular in good balance.

That direct pressure on your soles has a lot of health benefits that have been commonly accepted in parts of the world, especially Asia where it is appreciated enough to have public foot paths especially for this purpose.  This opinion is not new . In fact, it goes back thousands of years as a way to stay healthy, agile and enjoy longevity.

Public Reflexology Paths are hard to find.  I am hoping that my contribution makes them more popular so that the public can enjoy and be enlightened by this ancient gift from our ancestors .
