Reflexology

What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is the massage of particular areas of the body, usually focused on the feet, which is believed to help the body’s natural healing defences. It is a soothing process designed to:

Increase relaxation
Improve mood
Aid sleep
Relieve tension
Improve a sense of well-being

Originating in China, around 5000 years ago, Reflexology lends itself to many other natural therapies, such as acupuncture and shiatsu.

What can I expect from a session?

Your first session will involve a consultation to determine your lifestyle and health, both in the present and the past. Treatment involves a light pressure to areas on the feet and sometimes the hands. Sessions usually last for one hour, and repeat treatments can be prescribed.
