About the Author
Kevin and Barbara Kunz are internationally recognized authorities in the field of reflexology. They have researched, taught, practiced and documented reflexology for twenty years. The Kunzes became concerned about the preservation of the native healing tradition of reflexology as practiced in the U. S. As a result they wrote, illustrated, and published The Complete Guide to Foot Reflexology in 1980. When published by Prentice -Hall in 1982, it was the best selling title for the fall season. More than 125,000 copies of the book have sold in the US alone. Hand and Foot Reflexology, A Self-Help Guide remains on the American Bookseller's Association Basic Book List.

Subsequent research includes further developments in foot reflexology technique, self-help hand and foot reflexology techniques, hand reflexology techniques, professionalism in reflexology and a theory of reflexology's workings within the nervous system.

Further books include Hand and Foot Reflexology, A Self-Help Guide; Hand Reflexology Workbook (Revised); The Practitioner's Guide to Reflexology., The Complete Guide to Foot Reflexology (Revised), Reflexology for Children, Medical Applications of Reflexology, and My Reflexologist Says Feet Don't Lie. Their four books are published in sixteen foreign editions and eight languages, English, Dutch, German, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, and Hebrew.

The Kunzes are co-directors of Reflexology Research; co-editors of Reflexions, the Journal of Reflexology Research, now in its twenty-first year of publication; and maintain a Web Page. The Kunzes practice in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
