'Reflexology relaxes you, revives you, restores you, balances you and grounds you.’
Based on the theory that feet are the window to the body, reflexology is a non-intrusive complementary therapy.
Therapists enhance the natural healing mechanisms of your body by stimulating more than 7,000 nerve endings in just one session.
Reflexology restores the body’s natural balance, and leaves you feeling truly relaxed and de-stressed after your treatment.
On top of the deep relaxation and stress relief, there are several scientifically proven areas where reflexology can help support:
Helping with the side effect from Cancer treatment– including reducing nausea, pain, constipation and diarrhoea. It can also help with sleep and anxiety.
Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, with patients reportedly feeling up to 40% less pain when undertaking regular treatments.
Assists the reduction of Hypertension.
The relaxation side of reflexology can extend to the mind to support the treatment of depression and anxiety.
It is suggested that reflexology can decrease the fatigue and nerve pain felt from Multiple sclerosis.
Receiving foot reflexology is known to improve your blood circulation which can help aid quicker healing.
Reflexology has an ability to stimulate nerve functions that help your body increase your energy levels, circulation, central nervous system, prevent migraines, clear urinary infections, sleep disorders and depression.
