What is reflexology?
Reflexology originated in Ancient Eygpt and dates back to 2500 BC. Reflexology is a complimentary therapy which involves applying pressure and using specific techniques in certain areas on the hands and feet.
Reflexology is based on the idea that nerves endings in the feet and hand correspond to different organs throughout the body. As reflexologists, we stimulate nerves endings, sending signals through the central nervous system to communicate with the rest of our body allowing the healing process.
There are many benefits that reflexology may be able to help with including:
Reducing stress and anxiety
Reducing pain
Lifting mood
Boosting the immune system
Correcting hormone imbalances
Boosts fertility
Improve digestion
What to expect on your first appointment
Before your first session you will be sent a consultation form that will need to be filled out in full prior to your visit. A full investigatory reflexology treatment will then be given, where any areas of imbalance can be noted. A treatment plan will be then created to match your needs from the findings of the first treatment. The treatment plan will be continually assessed and amended as needed.
It might be recommended for you to come more regularly to begin with depending on why you are having reflexology, but your reflexologist will discuss this with you.
