Reflexology

Reflexology is a stimulating yet relaxing form of compression massage on the feet. The feet are said to contain reflex areas that mirror and connect to all parts of the body, and pressure applied to these reflex points can actually influence your state of health. Each organ and muscle is connected by a network of nerves where channels of energy flow through the body and terminate in the nerve endings of the feet. Where there are imbalances or blockages in the body, 'crystalline deposits' form in the reflex areas and cause congestion. With the special techniques used in reflexology, these deposits can easily be broken up and released into the blood stream for proper elimination. The main aim of reflexology is to help the body heal itself and to bring balance to the body.

What Does a Session Involve?

Each session will last for up to an hour. Since the feet are the only area being worked on there is never any need for removal of clothing. The number of reflexology sessions needed will depend on your personal requirements. To gain the full benefit of reflexology, a full course of treatment sessions is advised. This can start with between five to ten weekly sessions and then be reduced to monthly maintenance treatments, but is entirely your choice.

What are the Benefits?

Reflexology may seem little more than a foot massage to some, but the benefits of receiving reflexology are wide-ranging. It has been found to help improve immunity, digestive complaints such as IBS, headaches, migraines, sinusitis, menstrual and menopausal symptoms, back ache, insomnia, stress, anxiety, depression and, without question, aid relaxation. Reflexology is safe and suitable for all ages. Give it a try...your feet will love you for it!
