Reflexology

Reflexology is a therapy in which pressure and specific massage techniques are applied to reflex points on the feet and hands. It is based on the principle that these reflex points correspond in their arrangement to the structure of the body and relate to the organs, glands and systems within.

By accessing these reflex points reflexology may be able to:

•    Encourage the body towards self-healing
•    Maintain good health as a help towards preventing illness,
•    Assist with the elimination of toxins and impurities to help cleansing,
•    Revitalise energy,
•    Improve circulation.

Reflexology has roots in many cultures. The earliest recording of a therapy in the form of reflexology is found in an Egyptian tomb drawing, date 2330 BC.

ABOUT THE TREATMENT

Your first treatment will consist of a detailed consultation to understand your medical history and to provide insight into any present conditions. The course of treatment varies from person to person.

After the treatment a feeling of total relaxation and serenity is generally experienced as reflexology encourages the body’s energies to harmonize and flow more freely. It is normal if you experience very mild symptoms after the treatment. This is a healing reaction, which lasts for a very short time as the body is eliminating toxins.

Most people, from the old to the very young, can benefit from the treatment and the therapy can bring relief to a large number of conditions including:
migraines & headaches
constipation & IBS
