Reflexology

Reflexology is based on the premise that our entire bodies are mapped onto the feet and hands. By stimulating reflex points with finger compression techniques, all the systems in the body are stimulated, and the body's natural inclination to heal itself is encouraged. Where there is inhibited functioning in the body due to stress, pain, energy blockages or other imbalance, the therapist may notice physical manifestations and/or you may feel sensations in corresponding zones in the feet or hands.

Reflexology is gentle enough for pregnancy (from the second trimester), for children, mature bodies, and for those in convalescence or palliative care. Reflexology is one of the most portable of therapies and ideal for hospitalized clients, those with limited mobility or movement or other impairments where conventional massage would not be appropriate.

The treatment is carried out on a massage table in bare feet, without oil. The treatment is adapted for special needs; usually this means a shorter treatment time and lighter pressure if necessary. Newborns will be treated at the same time as their mothers. If you are interested in treating a young child, you are welcome to bring him/her in to watch you have a treatment. Parents are requested to remain in the room while the child is being treated.

To allow time for the consultation, please allow 60 minutes for your appointment (average treatment time 45 minutes).
