What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a holistic treatment that aims to restore balance to the body as a whole. It has been practised since the time of ancient Egypt and is renowned for its ability to relax and calm.

Some of my clients choose to attend clinic with the following stress-related conditions:

• Stress and Anxiety
• Sleep disorders
• Digestive Problems
• Allergies, Sinusitis
• Headaches and Migraines
• Muscular Tension and Pain
• Chronic Back Pain including Sciatica
• Hormonal symptoms

Why Choose Reflexology?

• It may offer a natural, drug-free treatment option for a variety of health problems
• It may help to ease over-used tired feet and hands
• It may offer a treatment option for pain relief
• It may help to promote general relaxation
• It may be used to maintain good health in a preventative way
• In some cases it could help release endorphins, the bodys feel-good chemicals
• It offers an opportunity to take a break from the stress of everyday life. *Putting ones feet up and taking a short time out is effective in itself

How It Works

Reflexology is based on the principle that reflex areas in the hands and feet correspond with all parts of the body, including organs and glands. By stimulating or relaxing these reflexes, a response is initiated via the nervous system.

It is a powerful therapy in its ability to work with both the circulatory system and the lymphatic system. The Chinese believe that when a pathway is blocked, the energy flow is disrupted, breaking the bodys harmony and causing pain or illness.

Blockages are cleared in acupuncture with needles, in shiatsu by using direct pressure on the meridians and in reflexology, by using finger pressure to the sections of meridians found in the feet. These points respond to pressure, stimulating your bodys own natural healing process, resulting in better health.

Benefits

The benefits of reflexology treatments extend beyond just feeling good. Reflexology lets you experience all the wonders and therapeutic benefits of massage while you are fully clothed and without the use of oils or creams.

All you need to do is recline in my relaxing reflexology chair and enjoy the application of special techniques that focus on relieving tension and any discomfort from key stress-affected areas. After an initial period of feeling relaxed, people may often experience increased energy, heightened awareness and great productivity, which may last for days and positively touch you.

My treatments are designed to relax you and refocus your mind. They also provide the perfect opportunity to enjoy some time out. Let me tailor a treatment to suit you, taking into account any health problems or conditions that you may have.

What To Expect In a Consultation

Reflexology is non-invasive with only the feet (and sometimes hands) worked. It is deeply relaxing, yet surprisingly energising. You may feel that you are being pampered during a reflexology session, but do not underestimate the powerful effect this treatment can have on all of your body systems.

One of the most significant benefits of the service I offer, is that the positive effects of Reflexology are transferred to you almost immediately. I will quickly assess and work the reflex points needed and within minutes of reclining in my chair, you will start to unwind.

If you are suffering from stress, you will notice the tension in your body and mind disappearing. Not many medical practitioners can boast their patients fall asleep during treatment, but for me it is all part of the job.

Physical effects of Reflexology that some of my clients experience can be:

• A reduction of stress levels
• Induced deep relaxation
• May improve circulation
• Reduction in stress levels may cleanse the body of impurities
• Balancing the whole system
• Revitalises energy levels
