Reflexology is a non-invasive complementary health therapy that can be effective in promoting deep relaxation and wellbeing; reducing stress in people’s lives can be key in optimising good health and building resilience.

A reflexologist applies compression or pressure to ‘reflexes’, these are specific points on a client’s feet (or on the hands, ears or face with some treatments) to create a healing response.

It’s a natural, non-invasive healing art; by working these reflexes, a reflexologist is able to relieve tension and stress, improve circulation, promote relaxation, and assist with ailments in their client’s body.

All you need to do is remove your shoes and socks and sit in a comfortable reclining chair, or lay on a couch. The reflexes in your feet or hands are stimulated using gentle yet firm pressure with the fingers and thumbs. You may experience sensitivity depending on the level of tension. The amount of pressure is adjusted to your individual needs.

Most people report they feel more relaxed, and their feet feel lighter after a session. Some feel they have more energy and others feel that they need to rest.

As a complimentary therapy, a reflexologist does not practice medicine, or diagnose or prescribe medicine.

Your first session is usually a little longer (plan for 90 minutes) as we will precede treatment with a simple and confidential case history. We’ll need to discuss aspects of your medical history, lifestyle, any medication or supplements, and what you are looking to address with your treatment.

Subsequent sessions last approximately one hour.

During the Reflexology treatment, comfortable pressure is applied to the feet using my thumbs and fingers. We are all unique and treatment response is individual, but most people feel incredibly relaxed.
