Reducing Stress Hastens the Healing Process
A recent article by Kevin Rawlinson in The Independent newspaper, on the 10th June 2010, described the results of research that had been conducted, linking people's level of stress to the time it took them to recover from injuries.
In essence the research indicated quite clearly that the time to recover from injuries was up to twice as long in those people suffering from the highest degrees of stress, compared to those participants with the lowest stress levels..
These results were presented by Professor John Weinman, from the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College London, to the Cheltenham Science Festival.
Given that Reflexology has long been acknowledged to be beneficial in reducing stress, this is a useful scientific confirmation of what has to date been practitioners' experience – the link between mental and physical well-being.

The following photograph was taken on the day:
