Washington, D.C. area resident Njideka N. Olatunde in writing "Reflexology Today: A Family Affair," introduces Reflexology techniques each member of a family can use in relieving pain, reducing stress, and relaxing the body. The book gives readers who are unfamiliar with this alternative method of healing, a look at how stress is related to chronic illnesses and how Reflexology can be a great way of ridding the body of that stress.

Reflexology is a therapy that is gaining recognition not only in the health field, but in the Beauty industry as well, since both professions address the issue of stress.
