Reflexology

The basic principle of reflexology is that congestion or tension in any part of the foot mirrors the same condition in a corresponding body part.

Reflexology is a non-intrusive technique. It can be a relaxing therapy that works on many levels, soothing, calming, balancing and boosting the entire body.

The basic principle of reflexology is that congestion or tension in any part of the foot mirrors the same condition in a corresponding body part. Reflexology principles look at body parts (or reflex points) which can also be found on the hands and other areas of the body, however, the most commonly treated area is the foot.

How can a reflexologist help you?

Reflexology may have many beneficial and lasting effects.

Some treatments aim to restore systems for better function while others are more specific, addressing particular conditions. It is a healing process that can be safely used when it is not convenient to treat other body parts.

You may want to visit a reflexologist to support you with the following conditions:

  • Asthma
  • Back, neck and shoulder pain
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Pre-menstrual syndrome and other menstrual irregularities
  • Sciatica
