Reflexology is a form of complementary medicine that studies the relationship of the reflex points of the feet (hands and ears) to the rest of the body. The formation of this ‘body map’, linking the reflex points to body areas, enables the practitioner to locate problematic imbalances or disorders and treat accordingly.

Advanced Reflexology involves stimulating meridian acupressure points to further aid the re-balancing effect of the treatment.

By stimulating these points on the feet (hands and ears) using gentle thumb pressures and hand movements, all areas of the body can be treated, addressing not only prevailing symptoms but also underlying, chronic conditions.

 

How can Reflexology help me?

Reflexology has been used as a proven, effective, drug-free therapy for thousands of years. Although not claiming to ‘cure-all’, its use has effectively and successfully treated a wide number of disorders and conditions:
 

	Menopausal symptoms
	Premenstrual Syndrome
	Stress/Anxiety
	Sinus problems
	Insomnia
	Digestive disorders

Who can benefit from Reflexology?

Reflexology is suitable for all ages and can bring relief from a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. For maximum therapeutic benefit, a course of treatments is recommended.

You will find regular Reflexology treatments improve your quality of sleep, boost your immunity and help maintain energy levels. Problematic health issues seem far less troublesome and more controllable. The positive effects of Reflexology can be further improved with a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Treatment sessions

The start of your session begins with a relaxing, warm, bubbly foot spa, releasing the day’s tension.

On your first visit for a treatment, you will be invited to talk through a general health, lifestyle and medical history questionnaire and voice any questions you may have in mind.

Moving onto the comfortable couch, the Reflexology and massage begin, working out residual tension, stimulating and balancing the body systems. Your first session lasts around 1 hour 45 minutes providing a thorough de-stress and re-balance. Subsequent sessions normally last just over an hour.

Catherine currently provides sessions of Reflexology and Reiki at Goring Hall Hospital (Monday afternoons) and practices in
East Preston at all others times.
