Reflexology can be a helpful natural healing method in reducing many symptoms and to assist in healing many disorders and illnesses.

Reflexology is a wonderful treatment for all age groups, and can be particularly effective when used in conjunction with other therapies, natural and conventional treatments alike.

About the Reflexology Session

The actual Reflexology treatment is 1 hour. I always begin my sessions with a health assessment…asking questions about your physical and emotional health, previous surgical procedures, chronic issues and so on. So if it is your first session you should allow 1 and ½ hours.

Most people respond to a Reflexology treatment feeling relaxed and refreshed. However, especially if it is your first session or if you are going through an acute illness, you may experience what is referred to as a “healing crisis”. This is the body’s reaction to the flushing out of toxins and unwanted energy. This usually lasts around 24 hours and the symptoms tend to be very general, such as feeling tired and lethargic and/or feeling very emotional.

How does Reflexology Work?

Reflexology is a treatment that targets certain Reflex zones in order to maintain good health and aid in healing acute and chronic conditions. It can be carried out on the feet, hands ears and the head. I specialise on the feet.

The whole physical body it’s organs and tissues are represented in the Reflex points and zones in the feet. By using specific techniques to apply pressure on these points one actually works on the whole energetic system of the entire body. In case of acute or chronic illness specific organs and systems can be targeted to aid in healing.
