What is Reflexology and how can it help you?
Reflexology is a science that deals with the principle that there are reflex areas on the feet and hands that correspond to all the glands, organs and parts of the body. It is a unique method of using the thumbs and fingers on these reflex areas.
Reflexology relieves stress and tension, improves nerve and blood supply and promotes the unblocking of nerve impluses and helps nature to normalise.
Reflexology is a holistic therapy. It does not prescribe, diagnose or treat for any specific condition. It is not a beauty treatment or a foot massage. It is totally safe for people of all ages, from babies to the elderly, for pregnant women and those undergoing chemotherapy.
Over 75% of our health problems can be linked to nervous stress and tension.
It may help with many conditions - the following are just a few of them:
Stress and tension
Hormone imbalance
Fertility
Menstrual problems
Back pain
Digestive problems
Blood pressure problems
Sleep disorders
Skin conditions
Colds/flu
Sinus problems
Respiratory problems
Allergies

The Treatment - What to expect?
The first session will begin with a health, diet, lifestyle and medical history consultation. I will then explain how reflexology works and examine your feet. For the treatment you will be reclined in a chair with your footwear removed.
A full foot reflexology treatment will generally last 50-60 minutes.
I will make notes following your session so that improvements can be noted at future appointments. All information recorded will be treated in accordance with the Data Protection Act and will remain totally confidential.
