What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a holistic healing technique (holistic deriving from the Greek word holos which means whole). This means that it aims to treat the individual wholly I.e. not just the physical body but the mind and spirit too. It does this based on the discovery that there are points on the hands and feet which correspond to the organs, systems and structures of the body.
Reflexology does not aim to diagnose or specifically treat a symptom. Instead it looks to induce a state of harmony and balance thereby allowing the individual to effect their own healing.
How does Reflexology work?
Reflexology stimulates the nerves which improves the flow of nerve energy throughout the body. This is also the case with blood flow and lymph supply to and from the cells. This improvement to overall circulation should not be underestimated as it nourishes the cells and eliminates waste more effectively.
Reflexology also has a deeply relaxing effect and given that the it is estimated that at least 75% of disease is caused by some form of stress, then being able to have time to relax will be a major contribution to improving overall health and wellbeing.
How can Reflexology help me?
Whilst Reflexology does not claim to diagnose or cure conditions, many health issues have been helped. These include:
Arthritis
Asthma
Back Pain
Colitis
Digestive disorders (e.g. IBS & constipation)
Excema, Psoriasis & other skin disorders
Hayfever
Headaches (including migraines)
Hormonal Imbalances
Infertility
Insomnia
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E)
Menstrual issues
Nervous disorders (e.g. M.S. & sciatica)
Stress & tension
What does a Reflexology treatment involve & how much does it cost?
The initial treatment includes completion of a full medical questionnaire and takes about 1hr 15mins (subsequent treatments last 1hr).
You will be asked only to remove your shoes and socks before lying propped up on the treatment couch. I will then work on the reflex points on each foot in turn.
The cost of a reflexology session is £30.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a non-intrusive hands on healing technique which is perfectly safe and gentle. It is a holistic therapy meaning that it improves health and wellbeing of not only the physical body but also the mind and soul.
How does Reiki work?
Reiki is usually translated as “Universal Life-force Energy” and this goes some way to explaining how it works. It is acknowledged that all around us is energy in one form or another although we use the word to mean many different things. Quantum physics has established that everything at an atomic level is vibrating at different rates and it is the speed which dictates how the energy appears I.e. as physical matter or as unseen but never the less existing energy e.g. microwaves and X-rays.
The human body is comprised of electromagnetic energy with every cell and atom vibrating at different rates depending on their purpose e.g. the human heart can be measured by an electro-cardiogram (ECG) machine.
When the energy in the human body (known as Ki in Japan, Chi in China or Prana in India) becomes blocked and unable to flow as it normally would, it eventually leads to illness in some form. As the Reiki energy flows through the body, it helps break down energetic blockages allowing life force to flow naturally throughout the mind, body and soul.
How can Reiki help me?
As Reiki works on many different levels, it is a simple yet powerful process. The universal energy will go where it is required on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. Reiki does not diagnose or cure conditions but works for the individual’s highest good to allow self healing.
Benefits from a Reiki treatment include:
Balancing of bodily functions
Enhanced personal awareness
Natural self healing
Pain relief
Relaxation and stress relief
What does a Reiki treatment involve and how much does it cost?
A Reiki treatment lasts 1hr with a short medical questionnaire at the start.
You will be asked to remove your shoes and then lie on the treatment couch fully clothed. Starting with the head, I will move down the body either lightly touching or holding my hands slightly above the areas being treated.
A Reiki treatment costs £30
What is Hopi Ear Candling?
Hopi Ear Candling, also known as Thermal Auricular Therapy is a pleasant, non-invasive treatment of the ears.
The candles are made from untreated cotton coated in pure beeswax, honey extract, sage, St John’s wort and camomile. Each ear is treated in turn and the candle which is 22 cm is inserted gently into the ear where it usually takes about 10 minutes to burn to the marker.
How does Hopi Ear Candling work?
The Hopi Ear Candling works on the chimney effect. The movement of the flame, creates a vibration of air which draws up any impurities to the surface and equalises the pressure within the head and ears.
Most of the secretions will be carried away through the chimney but some can be found as waxy residue in the remaining part of the candle.
How can Hopi Ear Candling help me?
Hopi Ear Candling has been found to benefit a number of conditions. These include:
Allergic rhinitis
Cleaning out excessive or compacted earwax
Earache
Glue Ear
Headache (including migraine)
Improved sense of hearing or smell & taste
Sinusitis
Stress
Tinnitus
It can also help as a preventative measure prior to flying or diving if the change in pressure causes earache.
What is involved in a Hopi Ear Candle treatment and how much does it cost?
After an inital short medical questionnaire you will be asked to lie on your back on the treatment couch. Each ear is treated in turn by placing the candle lightly in the outer ear. When this has been completed, I will give a Reiki treatment to the facial area to assist with the process.
Each treatment lasts approximately 1 hr and costs £30.
Beginner's Yoga classes
As a yoga practitioner for over 6 years, I've always been aware of the benefits of exercise and relaxation to our overall health.
However, many people can be put off yoga assuming you have to be ultra flexible to take part. Also large, established classes can be pretty intimidating for the beginner.
So to help bring the benefits of yoga to you, I've started 2 weekly beginner's classes in Timperley, Cheshire and 1 in Hale, Cheshire.
Days and times are as follows:
Monday 4.45-5.45pm @ Navigation Road Primary School
Wednesday 1.30-2.30pm @ The Balance Studio, Hale
Thursday 7.00-8.00pm@ Timperley Community Centre
Class sizes are kept deliberately small to allow plenty of one to one time. They are suitable for people of all ages and degrees of fitness/flexibility. For more details please email or phone me.
COMING SOON : Classes at Total Fitness in Altrincham - Monday evenings 6.30-7.30pm & 7.45-8.45pm
What do I need for the Yoga classes?
Loose clothing should be worn to a yoga class e.g. jogging bottoms, leggings or shorts (in summer) and a T-shirt. You will also need a warm jumper, cardigan or thin blanket and socks for the relaxation session at the end of the class.
A non-slip exercise mat is also required for Timperley venues (I have a limited number of Yoga sets consisting of mat, bricks & strap available to buy - please ask for further details).
