Reflexology is the name given to the form of treatment which involves specific massage of the feet, promoting healing and health of the systems of the body. Forms of Reflexology have been in use for at least 3,000 years.
The therapy works on the principle that the body is divided into ten zones that run lengthwise from head to toes, where the reflex areas for all the organs, glands and body parts are found. Energy runs through these zones. When the constant flow of Energy becomes blocked that is when illness can occur. As reflexologists we use a constant rhythmic pressure on the relexes, usually in the feet, although we can work on the hands too. This breaks down the blockages, allowing the return of free-flowing energy and deep relaxation to occur, thus enabling the body's own healing mechanism to take effect. This therapy is a great relaxer and stress reliever - and you don't have to be unwell to benefit from treatment.
Your first treatment will include an in-depth consultation, which will help your therapist to ascertain the areas that require specific attention if any. We recommend a course of six treatments to gain maximum benefits.
