Reflexology is a foot massage designed to improve circulation and function of the organs and systems of the body. It involves application of pressure to reflex points on the feet to relieve ailments in corresponding areas of the body. Massaging the reflex points stimulates the healing process by eliminating blockages to the energy flows or qi.

Although reflexology is not a cure for medical conditions or diseases, it is used as a complimentary treatment for a range of health conditions including neck or back pain, sports injuries, migraines and other medical conditions. Treatment is also helpful for a wide range of stress-related conditions and helps to improve balance and energy flows.

A reflexology treatment typically lasts 30 – 40 minutes. We begin by removing your shoes and socks and arranging you comfortably on a massage table with relaxing music playing softly in the background. During the treatment I feel for areas of tenderness or pain which may indicate a problem in the corresponding area of the body. If you experience pain or discomfort during the session, please let me know so I can alleviate the problem.

You may feel deeply relaxed after a session or you may be energized by the treatment. I recommend that you drink plenty of water and allow time for your body to integrate after a treatment. The number of treatments varies and is determined by the nature of your condition, although a weekly session for 6 to 12 weeks is a standard recommendation.
