Reflexology is a complementary therapy based on the principle that areas of the feet and face correspond with different parts of the body. Treatment involves gentle pressure and massage techniques designed to encourage relaxation, bring the body back to balance and support wellbeing.
-
Facial reflexology is a deeply relaxing treatment using gentle pressure and massage techniques on the face. As well as working with reflex points, the treatment can help release facial tension and leave you feeling calm and restored.
-
Your treatment begins with a consultation so that I can understand how you are feeling and whether there is anything I need to be aware of. You can then settle comfortably on the treatment bed while your treatment is tailored to you. There is plenty of time to relax, and you are welcome to ask questions at any point.
-
You are welcome to chat during your treatment, but you don’t have to. If you prefer to close your eyes, relax and fall asleep, then this is great too.
For facial reflexology, I recommend trying not to talk until the end, as it enables the treatment to be as relaxing for you as possible.
-
Comfortable clothing is best. For foot reflexology, trousers that can be comfortably rolled up above the calf are ideal. For facial reflexology, you simply need to be comfortable and relaxed.
-
Reflexology may be suitable during pregnancy, but there are certain circumstances where treatment may need to be adapted or postponed. Please let us know when booking if you are pregnant so that we can discuss this with you and ensure the treatment is appropriate.
-
Please let us know about any medical conditions, recent surgery or pregnancy at the time of booking. This allows us to make sure your treatment is appropriate and either postpone or make any necessary adaptations. Reflexology is complementary and does not replace advice or treatment from your GP or other healthcare professional.

Many people feel deeply relaxed after treatment, while others may feel refreshed or simply enjoy a sense of calm. Everyone responds differently. I recommend allowing yourself a little time afterwards rather than rushing straight back into a busy schedule.
