This book provides an in-depth exploration of Precision Reflexology – from basic techniques through to the more advanced work that offers a unique approach to the therapy. As the author explains, Precision Reflexology provides a way of working that is both powerful and effective without the need for strong physical pressure. The book also highlights the relationship between the linking technique and the Chakra system and includes illustrations and charts showing the location of all reflex points.

These A3-size foot charts are the original ones designed and produced by Prue Hughes, the founder of Precision Reflexology. There are four in each set, including illustrations of the foot, the hand, nerve intervention on the spine and representation of the spine on the foot.

Each card is colour-coded to indicate various massage strokes – effleurage, petrissage, percussion and mobilisation techniques. Presented in an A5-size plastic folder, they help practitioners demonstrate the flexibility of a massage routine by including a variety of strokes and employing them in a unique order for each treatment.
