REFLEXOLOGY

Reflexology is a wonderful, natural and simple way of helping the body to heal itself. It is a holistic (meaning ‘whole’) therapy, because, instead of focusing just on the symptoms, it works on the physical and emotional aspects of your wellbeing.

Some of the benefits:

• Induces deep relaxation
• Improves circulation
• Balances blood pressure
• Boosts the immune system
• Improves skin tone/condition

Some conditions it can help:

• Digestive disorders
• Hormonal imbalances
• Sleeping problems
• Stress and tension related problems
• Infertility
• Aiding recovery after illness and operations
• Headaches
• Menopausal symptoms

Reflexology is based on the theory that there are energy zones that run throughout the body and link each part of the body with an area on the feet. Gentle pressure is applied to certain points along these zones which are called reflexes.

You do not have to be unwell to have a treatment. When you are sick, reflexology is nurturing, healing and relaxing. When you are healthy, it is a relaxing treatment that makes you feel positive and happy. Regular reflexology treatments will keep your body’s systems balanced, and can help to maintain your health.

A reflexologist does not diagnose a medical condition, or promise a cure, however it is possible to detect areas of the body which are out of balance and showing signs of stress and tension.
