************************************************************************************************************ NEXT EVENT: Welcome to Sunshine’s Wellness Center (Helping you heal and relax from the inside out) You have had a crazy week, and you need to unwind and leave the stress behind you. Our customized reflexology treatment is what the doctor would have ordered for you. Besides our reflexology treatment is very soothing and healing. Gentle massage and energy release is used initially, followed by deep pressure. The feelings experienced during a reflexology session should be relaxing and pleasant Reflexology, sometimes called reflex zone therapy, involves the massage of certain points on the feet and, less often, the hands. Reflexologists believe that these points correspond to zones in the body and that massaging these points can relieve stress and prevent or treat disease. Again, What Is Reflexology? It is a holistic therapy that aims to restore and maintain the body’s natural balance and encourage healing. Fact: Evidence shows that early African tribes, the American Indians, early Egyptians and the ancient Chinese knew all about the benefits of foot massage and reflexology. Some reflexologists also believe that the health of a person can be assessed by feeling the points to detect imbalances or blockages in the flow of energy in the body. Reflexologists use their hands and particularly their thumbs to give the treatment. A therapeutic reflexology treatment will benefit the whole body. More Reflexology examples: Reflexology is an ancient healing art based on the principles of reflexes in the hands and feet that correspond to every part, organ and gland in the body. - Relieve Stress and Tension
- Help Relieve Pain
- Improve Flexibility in Feet and Hands
- Restore Vitality
- Stimulate or Calm All Systems of the Body

The Beginning
Sunshine King was born in Baltimore, Maryland. At the age of two, she learned the art of dance from her mother. Movements Unlimited Performing Arts Inc., her mother's dance company, provided Sunshine the dance and drama skills necessary to be successful in the field. Her performance repertoire includes such roles in "Black Butterfly: Don't Do Drugs" (daughter/leading role; 1988-1999) and "Glimpses: The Life of Frederick Douglass" (played different roles; 1994-1999). Both plays were originals from Movements Unlimited Performing Arts Incorporated.
Ms. Sunshine also studied at The Arena Playhouse under Maria Broom and John Taylor. With the desire to improve, she later studied dance at Goucher College, enrolling into the Summer Dance Program in 1992. In 1994, Ms. Sunshine attended The Alvin Ailey Dance Theater Summer Institute where she studied dance for 11 weeks. She became a 1997 graduate of The Baltimore School of The Arts for this passion.
