Reflexology is a complementary therapy which facilitates the healing of the whole person and not just the symptoms of illness. By working on specific points of the feet, which correspond to organs and structures, the body is encouraged to work naturally to restore its own healthy balance.
Reflexology is deeply relaxing and as about 75% of disease is stress related, it provides a major contribution in maintaining good health.
Reflexology will relieve stress and tension, help improve blood flow and circulation It will also release toxins and re-balance the body. This will restore health and wellbeing.
Reflexology has been shown to be effective in the treatment of many conditions including:
• Snoring
• Poor circulation
• Tinnitus
• Weak immune system
• Compacted or excessive ear wax
• Migraines and headaches
• Symptoms of Sinusitis
• Colds and Flu
• Stress
• Vertigo and dizziness
• Travel sickness
Since reflexology treats the whole person rather than specific symptoms, most people can benefit from treatment. It can be used to help with almost any condition and for people of any age. It can be particularly helpful in the following areas: insomnia, stress, fatigue, anxiety, asthma, menopause, PMS, IBS and digestive problems, headaches, backache and pregnancy related conditions. However, because of its highly relaxing and stress relieving nature, reflexology can be of benefit to anyone in todays’ hectic lifestyle.
After one or two treatments your body may respond in a variety of different ways. Most people feel a sense of well-being and relaxation; sometimes people report feeling lethargic, nauseous or tearful, however this is transitory and is a part of the healing process.
It is important to tell me how you feel after your sessions so that I know how you are responding and can tailor a treatment plan specific to your needs.
Reflexology does not diagnose or prescribe. It is not invasive, no drugs or needles are used and it is suitable for everyone. The pressure applied is appropriate to each individual client.
