What is Reflexology?
The healing art of Reflexology was first practised in ancient Egypt, China, India and Japan. It was introduced to the Western World in 1923 by an American ear, nose and throat surgeon, Dr William Fitzgerald. He discovered that there are ten channels of energy running from the head to the fingertips and toes. The Reflexology chart was later revised by Mrs Eunice Ingham in the 1930s.
Reflexology is a natural, holistic therapy, based on the principle that reflex points in the hands and feet correspond with all areas of the body. Following stress, illness, injury or disease the body is in a state of “imbalance” and vital energy pathways are blocked, preventing the body from functioning properly.
How can it help?
When the nervous system becomes depleted through stress, trauma or constant pressure of everyday life,
the endocrine system (which control our hormones) becomes “out of balance”; because the body’s systems work hand in hand, an imbalance can cause many symptoms to occur.
Initial Consultation
On your first visit there will be an informal discussion about your heath and lifestyle.
There is an opportunity to talk through problems objectively, in a confidential and professional environment - these may be social, familial or work related. We will also discuss nutrition, hydration, sleep patterns and stress factors.
The initial consultation takes about 1½ hours, subsequent visits will be shorter. The length of your course will vary, depending on your body’s needs.
The Treatment
A Reflexologist uses his/her hands to apply pressure to the reflexes of the feet, while noting problem areas.
Sensitively trained hands can detect imbalances in the feet, indicating to the Reflexologist an imbalance in a corresponding area of the body. Reflexology induces deep relaxation, enabling the body to heal from within. Regular treatments keep the body in tune, helping to maintain health and a feeling of well-being.
