Reflexology is both gentle and powerful. It is a centuries-old therapy that works by the application of pressure on points on the feet (and sometimes hands) that correspond to organs in the body. A reflexology practitioner uses specific pressure techniques to massage each of the points in the toes, feet and ankles to release tension, remove energy blockages, disperse accumulations of calcium and uric acid, stimulate blood circulation and promote healing of both body and mind. |
It’s a holistic technique that that treats the individual as a whole. It can bring relief to a wide variety of acute and chronic conditions. |
Reflexology is suitable for all ages, including children and babies. |

The treatment is carried out with the recipient reclined on a comfortable Reflexology chair. Most clients report that a reflexology treatment is wonderfully relaxing and soothing; in fact many of them fall asleep. Each session will last about an hour. Some clients book a regular weekly or monthly session as a health maintenance measure, to keep their systems balanced and in good working order. |
