Foot Reflexology

Foot Reflexology is a safe, gentle, relaxing complementary therapy which applies pressure to the feet using fingers or thumbs which can aid the body’s natural healing process, increase a sense of wellbeing, thus encouraging a natural balance to mind and body which people of all ages can benefit from.

The theory of reflexology is that the organs, glands, nerves and other parts of the body are connected to reflex points which are located on the soles, tops and sides of the feet. By using a massage and compression technique with thumbs, fingers and hands, these areas are stimulated which can then create a direct response in a specific body area, for example, release of tension, stimulation of blood circulation.

With ever increasing levels of stress in everyday life, it is important for people to take more responsibility for their own healthcare needs. Reflexology may be one of the ways to mitigate the stresses of modern life

Pre-Post Pregnancy Reflexology

The main emphasis of reflexology is on restoring and maintaining homeostasis, aiding relaxation and easing symptoms of stress. In pregnancy, this may involve helping women to cope with the psychological and emotional demands of pregnancy, relieving pain and anxiety and aiding adaptation to parenthood and the establishment of breastfeeding (Federation of Holistic Therapists, 2009).

Pregnancy reflexology is tailored for women from pre-conception, through pregnancy (from 13 weeks) and post-natal. Reflexology can be beneficial for women experiencing fertility issues and for pre-conception by balancing the hormonal system and relieving stress. By relaxing muscles and ligaments, and improving overall wellbeing, reflexology may help pregnancy related issues such as backache and constipation and may help improve sleep. Similarly, post-natal reflexology can aid physical and emotional wellbeing.

Hand Reflexology

Hand reflexology is a simple yet effective therapy that can be deeply relaxing (Federation of Holistic Therapists, 2008). Hand reflexology follows similar principles to foot reflexology, whereby gentle pressure is applied to reflex points on the hands that correspond with other areas of the body. Studies have shown that hand reflexology can ease anxiety, stress related headaches and constipation. Hand reflexology can also improve circulation and an overall sense of well-being and may be particularly beneficial for people who are unable to have foot reflexology, for example due to injury.
