Reflexology has been practiced for over 5000 years and originated in China. It originated as an ancient form of foot massage based on the belief that our bodies, reflected in miniature on our feet, can affect our health and wellbeing.
Reflexology is suitable for everyone. It is non-invasive, non-diagnostic and there will be no prescription at the end of the treatment. It is very relaxing and totally patient centred allowing the patient both the time and the space to kick start their healing process. There are virtually no contra-indications making it safe and effective for those with serious conditions as well as those who just need an hour to release the stresses and strains of everyday life. A course of treatment not only improves your health and wellbeing but also makes you feel more in control, more in touch with the real you that has become buried under the trials and tribulations of the hectic lifestyle we all adopt.
As an holistic therapy, it treats the person as a whole and not just presenting symptoms. It works by increasing the circulation of the blood and lymphatic systems, taking the much needed oxygen and healing all over the body, re-balancing the system and rejuvenating the energies in and around the patient. A person who is well holistically enjoys a better quality of life, and by achieving homeostasis reflexology encourages the healing process to become more efficient. Not only do patients feel better, they look better too because the increased blood flow improves the condition and tone of the skin and other soft tissues.
