Reflexology is a treat for people of all ages

 

Specific points (known as reflex zones) found on the hands, ears and feet are either stimulated or sedated to encourage your body to self-regulate and heal. This ancient natural therapy is deeply relaxing, requires no undressing (apart from shoes and socks) and is a real treat for people of all ages, from babies to the young-at-heart. So give it a go, you never know!

​

Through relaxation, reflexology may help you to:

• ease digestion

• manage pain 

• facilitate sleep 

• uncoil the tight knots in your neck and spine

• ease PMS or hormonal imbalances

• calm a racing mind or feel grounded

• help knee and shoulder issues

• boost your energy levels

• speed up your detox

• get ready for labour in the last few weeks of your pregnancy

• support your breastfeeding journey (and if you need local lactation support I highly recommend Abi Barham)

• and much more!

​

However...

Please note that reflexology is unsuitable if you have the following:

• deep vein thrombosis

• cellulitis

• an unstable pregnancy, especially in the 1st trimester or history thereof

• a fever or infectious disease

• just eaten a heavy meal

If you are unsure about your suitability to having a reflexology treatment, please check with your medical practitioner.
