Reflexology

with Louise Calladine (07799006624)

What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a gentle yet powerful complementary therapy, which is based on the principle that the entire body is mirrored on the soles of the feet. The treatment helps to restore and maintain the body’s natural equilibrium; which is often disturbed by illness, stress, congestion and toxicity.

Reflexology is an ancient art dating back over 4000 years to ancient Egypt. It was introduced to the western world during the 1900’s and has become a popular complimentary therapy in the UK during recent years.

How does Reflexology work?

Gentle pressure is applied to the specific reflex points of the feet which are linked to the organs, systems and structures of the body, encouraging them to rebalance and heal. I can detect imbalances in the body though the reflex points of the feet and will work to correct these blockages helping to restore the flow of energy to the body.

How can Reflexology help you?

Reflexology has many benefits, including:

• Elimination of toxins from the body
  
• Improved immune system
  
• Improved circulation
  
• Improved energy levels
  
• Reduced stress and tension

Reflexology can be used to improve many health complaints, including:

Reflexology is a deeply relaxing and comforting treatment, which can achieve fantastic results. Following a reflexology treatment clients often comment that they feel like they have had a full body massage.

What to Expect

If you have never experienced a complementary therapy before it may be useful to know what to expect.

Prior to the treatment there will be a consultation to discuss your health, lifestyle and wellbeing. With this valuable information the treatment will be tailored to your unique circumstances, ensuring that you derive maximum benefit and enjoyment.

If you are receiving an Aromatherapy or Hot Stone Massage you will then be given privacy to undress to your underwear and relax on the comfortably padded massage couch (Reflexology and Ear Candling treatments are carried out fully clothed). Rest assured that your modesty will be respected - you will be covered with a sheet/blanket at all times and only the area being treated will be uncovered. Calming music will relax your mind and body as the treatment begins.

Following the treatment you will be given time to readjust from your state of relaxation ready to face the hustle and bustle of the outside world. You will be provided with aftercare advice that will allow you to optimise the feeling of wellbeing long after treatment.
