Reflexology

Reflexology 60mins $80

Reflexology is based on the principle that certain parts of the body reflect the whole. Reflex points, which relate to

all parts of the body, can be found in the feet, hands, face and ears. These points respond to pressure, stimulating

the body’s own natural healing process. The body starts progressively clearing blockages, re-establishing energy

flows and balancing itself, resulting in better health. There are many different styles and approaches used in

reflexology, however the basic principle is constant. Subtle yet powerful, reflexology is becoming increasingly

popular in the world of complementary therapies.

 

Reflexology is a wonderfully relaxing therapy that works on many levels, soothing, calming, balancing and boosting

your entire body.

 

As a therapy, reflexology is not invasive- only the feet, and / or hands and ears are worked. It is deeply relaxing

yet surprisingly energizing – all part of its balancing capacity. You may feel you are being pampered during a

reflexology session but do not underestimate the powerful effects this treatment can have on all of your body

systems.

 

All body systems benefit from reflexology but you may notice the affect on your circulation, nervous and lymphatic

systems in particular.

 

Reflexology can address your particular needs Painful, congested, sluggish or overactive states within the body can be balanced and normalised. Thousands of documented case studies from around the world have demonstrated the benefits for:

 

• PMT
• Migraine
• Sinus
• Colic
• Menopause
• Constipation/Diarrhoea
• Back Pain
• Neck Pain
• Siatica
• Shoulder Pain
• Asthma
• Stroke
• Menstrual Irregularities

 

A foot reflexology session lasts about an hour depending on the age and state of health of the person receiving

the treatment. First sessions tend to be longer as the practitioner needs to take a case history prior to any

treatment.

 

The exact number of sessions required depends upon several factors including the condition being addressed

and the healing response of the individual. A minimum of 3-4 sessions are usually recommended, however chronic

conditions may take longer to respond.

 

As blockages clear and the body reaches a state of balance, the sessions would be cut back to fortnightly, monthly

or whenever the client feels the need. It is generally recommended that sessions should be at least a few days

apart to allow the body time to adjust to the changes that are taking place as toxins released from congested

systems are processed and eliminated.

 

At your first session you will be given a brief explanation of reflexology and possible reactions and benefits you may

experience.

 

Questions will be asked regarding your health and lifestyle. You will be required to remove your footwear and your

feet will be examined.

 

The therapist will gently relax your feet and proceed to work through all the reflex areas. The pressure will be

adjusted to your level of sensitivity.

 

Suggestions may be made for the best course of action to achieve maximum benefit.

A series of treatments may be required depending on your state of health.
