What is reflexology?
Reflexology has been described as the antidote to the stress ofmodern living. It is a natural, relaxing, holistic treatment based on the principle that ‘reflex’ points on the soles, tops and sides of the feet correspond to the body’s systems and organs. Different pressure techniques are used to detect and address imbalances in these reflexes,and in so doing promote deep relaxation and release blocked energy. With ever-increasing stress levels, it is important that people take more
responsibility for their own healthcare
needs. Reflexology helps us cope on a
physical,mental and emotional level, i.e.
treating the whole person and not just the
symptom, thereby encouraging us to heal
and maintain good health in all aspects
of our lives.
Reflexology has been shown to be
particularly effective for:
- All sorts of musculo-skeletal pain, i.e.
back pain,
shoulder and neck problems
- Migraine and headaches
- Sub-fertility
- Sleep disorders
- Hormonal imbalances
- Digestive disorders
- Stress-related conditions

About the treatment:
I am a fully qualified practitioner and a member of the Association of Reflexologists (A.O.R.) I have full Public Liability and Malpractice Insurance.
Before your first visit, you will be sent via email, a health & lifestyle questionnaire which I would ask you to complete and bring with you. As it’s just your feet being treated, you remain fully clothed; simply removing your shoes and socks and you will then be made comfortable in a reclining chair. Your feet will be gently cleansed and the treatment will begin. I will use a variety of reflexology techniques adapted to suit
your individual needs.
I will also be looking at the “Language of
the Feet” by studying their overall shape,
size, colour, relationship to one another
and the toes, all of which build a picture
of the inner soul.
A treatment session usually lasts 50mins to
an hour but shorter “taster sessions” will be
made available on a 25 – 30minute basis.
Come and put your feet up and release
the pressures of your day!
