What Is Reflexology
Reflexology is the technique of applying gentle pressure to the reflexes on the feet and hands
in order to bring about a state of deep relaxation, stimulate the body's own healing processes
and help a person to return to a state of balance and well being.
Reflexology is a popular and relaxing holistic treatment based on the principle that reflex points
on the soles, tops, and sides of the feet are connected to corresponding areas throughout the body.
In this way, the feet can be seen as a ‘map’ of the body.
Reflexologists work on the reflexes with their thumbs and fingers using specialised massage
techniques, said to help correct imbalances throughout the body and help release blocked energy.
This natural drug free therapy balances the body’s circulatory, endocrine, digestive, excretory
& immune systems. It encourages elimination of toxins, releases endorphins
(the body’s natural painkillers), reduces stress & revitalizes energy.
Your first appointment involves a detailed consultation including general health, medical history, diet,
lifestyle and emotional well-being. This allows the Reflexologist to check that the treatment is safe
for you and to focus the treatment on your body's needs.
After the treatment you receive feedback from the session and a treatment plan is suggested.
