This is a therapy based on the meridian lines and zones which run through your hands and feet. Usually the feet are treated, as they tend to be more sensitive (as we use our hands the whole time) – but if your feet are particularly painful, or it is not convenient (if one is in plaster, for instance), the hands can be used. Or a mixture of one foot and the other hand – whichever is suitable and most appropriate for you.

Reflexology aims at bringing the whole body into balance – mind, body and spirit. By stimulating the reflex points it helps to revitalize the body and reactivates your own healing. It is profoundly relaxing for most clients.

It can help with

• Promotes general wellbeing
• Relax body and mind to reduce stress and anxiety
• Stimulates the body’s own immune system
• Improves circulation
• Balances hormones
• Improves sleep patterns
• Improves digestion
• Assist with fertility

It is a very gentle treatment and is even suitable throughout pregnancy, to help the body adjust to its changes.

The treatment can be carried out in a reclining chair – a Lafumer – or if that is not convenient, it can be done in your own chair, or on your own sofa. Only shoes and socks/ stockings need to be removed. 

Reflexology combines well with using Aromatherapy oils to maximize the therapeutic benefits, and can be added into or onto any of the other treatments.
