How can Reflexology help you?

Reflexology treatments can be given to anyone regardless of age and can bring relief from a number of acute and chronic symptoms.   Reflexologists will not claim to cure, diagnose or prescribe, but treatments have been shown to be effective for the conditions listed above.
Our feet have over 7,000 nerve endings which connect to the rest of the body, with reflex points corresponding to various parts of the anatomy.   By massaging or manipulating these points on the feet it helps to relieve physical symptoms and stimulates organs to function properly.  Ultimately achieving a state of wellbeing and balance in the body.

What would I expect from a Reflexology Treatment?

The treatment is carried out with the client sat or reclined on a couch or chair, fully clothed.  The Reflexologist then massages or manipulates the feet.  This can be very relaxing and some clients have been known to fall asleep!   An initial treatment assessment will take approximately 1 hour.   Follow on treatments take approximately ¾ hour after which time it is important to drink plenty of water, as with any massage treatment.   The majority of clients leave with a feeling of relaxation and general well being.

Background and History of Reflexology

Reflexology dates back to ancient Egyptian times but is also known to have been practised by the Chinese and Native Americans.   Recent practice incorporates more scientific knowledge and research and is increasingly respected by the medical profession.
