What is reflexology??
Reflexology is a complementary therapy widely accepted in the UK and recognised by the NHS, many GP’s and hospices. By applying pressure to the reflex points on the hands and/or feet, the blood circulation is improved, the body relaxes and organs and glands become balanced. Doctors agree that over 75% of our health problems can be linked to nervous stress and tension. Reflexology is fantastic for relaxing and clearing these blockages.
A typical foot reflexology session lasts 45-50 minutes and it is generally recommended that a course of 4-6 weekly treatments is considered, however the frequency of treatments is up to you, and may vary depending on your state of health and long term objectives.
Whilst reflexology works very well alongside conventional medicine, it should never be used in place of seeking professional medical advice. Reflexology is a unique modality in the health field. Its purpose is not to treat or diagnose for any specific medical disorder, but to promote better health and well being in the same way as an exercise or diet programme.
How can reflexology benefit me?
Reflexology can be used to help restore and maintain the body's natural equilibrium. This gentle therapy encourages the body to work naturally to restore its own healthy balance.
Reflexology has anecdotally been shown to be effective for
* Stress-related conditions
* Migraine
* Fertility
* Sleep disorders
* Hormonal Imbalances
* and other various problems
Reflexology is suitable for all ages and may bring relief from a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. After having completed a course of reflexology treatments for a specific condition, many people find it beneficial to continue to have occasional treatments to maintain health and well-being.
Many people use reflexology as a way of relaxing the mind and body and counteracting stress, some doctors, consultants and other health care professionals recognise reflexology as a well established, respected and effective therapy.
With ever increasing levels of stress, it is important for people take more responsibility for their own health care needs.
Reflexology may help people to cope on a physical mental and emotional level thereby encouraging healing and maintainance in all areas of life.
What to expect?
On the first visit, we will have a chat to determine your present and past health and lifestyle and take down some details.
I will then use my hands to apply pressure to the feet. The application and the effect of the therapy are unique to each person.
A session usually lasts for about one hour. A course of sessions may be recommended depending on your body's needs.
How will I feel after my session?
After one or two sessions your body may respond in a very definite way. Most people note a sense of well-being and relaxation; sometimes people report feeling lethargic, nauseous or tearful, but this is transitory and is part of the healing process.
This is vital information to feed back to the reflexologist as it shows how your body is responding to treatment. This will help me to tailior a treatment plan specific to your needs.

QUALIFICATION DETAILS
I am a qualified member of the International Institute of Reflexology and the Association of Reflexologists, and a practitioner of the Original Ingham Method® of Reflexology. I am also registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council.
I was trained by the International Institute of Reflexology, which is the oldest Reflexology School and the only one licensed to teach the Original Ingham Method® of Reflexology.
In the UK, Practitioners studying with the IIR have to achieve the highest theory pass mark of any Reflexology School. Qualifying as a Member entailed an in-depth study of anatomy and physiology, as well as the completion of over 100 hours of practical case studies.
The Association of Reflexologists was founded in 1984. It arose from a need to establish standards and to provide a network of qualified practitioners to which the public could refer with confidence. The aim of the Association is to help maintain a high standard of practice and patient care, and to promote reflexology. Members are bound by the Association's Codes of Practice and Ethics.
I am now studying for my Advanced Reflexology Techniques qualification to continue improving my skills and knowledge as reflexology techniques are continually being refined and adapted.
