In fact, early records of reflexology date back to Egyptian pharaohs.

The translation of the hieroglyphics found there reads as follows:
"Don’t hurt me." The practitioner’s reply:- "I shall act so you praise me."
A Proven Training Program From Introduction To Becoming a Certified Reflexologist
Reflexology Today, The Modern Science
Today
Reflexology has evolved to become an exciting natural healing
and wellness alternative thanks in large part to the pioneering
work of Eunice D. Ingham, a Physical Therapist who worked closely with Dr. Riley and was
initially fascinated by the concept of Zone Therapy.
Ingham started developing her foot reflex theory in the early 1930's that has since evolved into the The Ingham Method® of Reflexology, recognized around the world for its advanced techniques and natural benefits.
Zone Therapy vs. The Ingham Method® of Reflexology
Zone Therapy relies solely on the zones to determine area to be worked, whereas Reflexology takes the zones as well as the anatomical model to determine the area or areas to be worked.
