Reflexology is a wonderfully relaxing therapy that works on many levels, soothing, calming, balancing and boosting your entire body.
As a therapy reflexology is not invasive- only the feet, and / or hands and ears are worked. It is deeply relaxing yet surprisingly energizing - all part of its balancing capacity. You may feel you are being pampered during a reflexology session but do not underestimate the powerful effects this treatment can have on all of your body systems.
All body systems benefit from reflexology but you may notice the affect on your circulation, nervous and lymphatic systems in particular. .
Reflexology can address your particular needs
Painful, congested, sluggish or overactive states within the body can be balanced and normalised. Thousands of documented case studies from around the world have demonstrated the benefits for:
- PMT
- Migraine
- Sinus
- Colic
- Menopause
- Constipation/Diarrhoea
- Back Pain
- Neck Pain
- Siatica
- Shoulder Pain
- Asthma
- Stroke
- Menstrual Irregularities
Usually a foot reflexology session lasts about an hour depending on the age and state of health of the person receiving the treatment. First sessions tend to be longer as the practitioner needs to take a case history prior to any treatment.
The exact number of sessions required depends upon several factors including the condition being addressed and the healing response of the individual. A minimum of 3-4 sessions are usually recommended, however chronic conditions may take longer to respond.
As blockages clear and the body reaches a state of balance the sessions would be cut back to fortnightly, monthly or whenever the client feels the need. It is generally recommended that sessions should be at least a few days apart to allow the body time to adjust to the changes that are taking place as toxins released from congested systems are processed and eliminated.
