Reflexology is a complementary therapy that works on the reflex points on the feet and hands enabling the body to heal itself. Reflexology can be used to restore and maintain the body's natural equilibrium and encourage healing by applying pressure on the points to release energy blockages.

Thumbs and fingers are used to apply pressure to the feet and hands. For each person the application and the effect of the therapy is unique. Working on these points releases blockages and restore the free flow of energy to the whole body. Tensions are eased, and circulation and elimination is improved. This gentle therapy encourages the body to heal itself, often counteracting a lifetime of misuse.

Who Can Benefit From Reflexology?

Since reflexology treats the whole person, not just the symptoms of disease, most people can benefit from treatment.

Reflexology is suitable for:

• Stress related conditions
• Children and adults
• Sports injuries
• Preventative therapy
• Hormonal imbalance
• Acute and chronic conditions
• Migraines and Headaches
• High blood pressure
• Poor blood circulation
• Stress and Tension
• Insomnia (Sleep disorders)
• Allergies and sinus problems
• Premenstrual syndrome
• Backache and sciatica

Usually a treatment session lasts between 30 minutes to 1 hour. A course of 7 to 12 treatments varies in length depending on your body's needs. After the first treatment or two your body may respond in a very definite way: you may have a feeling of well-being and relaxation; or you may feel lethargic, nauseous or tearful, but this is transitory.

No need to remove clothes other than socks.
