reflexologist
Pressure point practitioner
A reflexologist practices reflexology, a form of alternative therapy involving pressure applied to specific points on the feet, hands, or ears.
The theory holds that these points correspond to organs and body systems, and that manipulation promotes health.
The reflexologist worked on pressure points in my feet to relieve tension.
