Understanding Reflexology
Reflexology is a deeply relaxing, non-invasive complementary therapy founded on the principle that specific reflex points on the hands, feet, and face correspond to all organs, glands, and systems of the body. By gently manipulating these areas, we aim to encourage the body’s own natural healing and balancing mechanisms.
The Mechanism of Balance
The careful application of pressure to these reflex zones sends impulses that work to improve overall energy flow, circulation, and lymphatic drainage throughout the body. This therapeutic process is highly effective at relieving stress and tension. While the treatment is gentle, you may occasionally feel a sensation of pressure in certain areas. This sensation simply indicates that the corresponding reflex area may need extra attention, and I will always work within your comfort level to ensure the experience remains pleasant and restorative.
A Holistic and Inclusive Approach
Reflexology is suitable for almost everyone, from babies to the elderly. Many clients choose regular sessions for deep relaxation and as a proactive approach to maintaining general well-being. Others seek the support of reflexology during times when they feel they need additional, non-medical support alongside conventional medical care, such as during periods of high stress, recovery, or pregnancy.
As a holistic practitioner, my role is to support you as a whole person, promoting your well-being and natural balance. Reflexology is not intended to replace conventional medicine; I do not diagnose, prescribe, or cure conditions. We focus on treating the individual to achieve a better overall outcome, working seamlessly with your existing healthcare.
