Reflexology

A gentle non-invasive, yet powerful therapy, reflexology is one of the most pleasant of all the holistic therapies. It is based on the principle that all parts of the body have a corresponding point on the foot called a reflex. The reflexes on the feet are massaged to stimulate the organ or body area to promote self-healing. This stimulation helps to maintain good blood circulation, relax the nervous system and promote pain relief. Acupuncture points are massaged to restore the balance of vital energy in the body which is necessary for perfect health.

The Consultation

The first 30-40 minutes of the first consultation is used to take your health history, any current health problems and an account of any medications you are taking and/or other treatments you are undergoing. During the treatment, you will lie on a treatment couch, on your back, while I work on your bare feet. Occasionally treatment will be done while you are standing. Either special creams or non-talc powder will be used on your feet. The actual treatment time is about 40 minutes.

On follow-up consultations, usually the first 10 minutes will be taken to check your progress and answer any questions which may have come up. The treatment again is 40 minutes.

Treatments are often accompanied by holistic recommendations including; lifestyle, supplements, exercise, etc.

Clients often like to take advantage of my special iridology offer; a handout of your iris constitution for £10.00. I take iris photographs, which helps me to understand your health profile, aiding in the formulation of your treatment.

Reflexology is relaxing and at the same time physically beneficial. Many of today's health problems are related to stress which reflexology addresses.

While often used as a relaxation therapy, it can enhanse health in general and balance body systems :

immunity, hormones, digestion, fertility, inflammation, energy levels, emotions, sleep patterns
