Hand Reflexology works by applying pressure to the reflexes on your hands, it can promote healing in different parts of your body. The reflexes in your hands are believed to correspond to different parts of the body and different bodily functions which can help you with a variety of issues, such as anxiety, sinusitis, migraines and pain management. The hand reflexes are deeper than those on your feet, so more pressure is applied than with foot reflexology.
Similar to hand reflexology, foot reflexology works by applying pressure to the reflexes on your feet, which can help ease the symptoms of a range of conditions. The reflexes in your feet are not as deep as those in your hands, so less pressure is applied. Many people find that both foot and hand reflexology can help reduce stress and anxiety, aid sleep, promote circulation to help restore balance and improve your overall health and well-being.
Reflexology is widely used in cancer, palliative and end of life care, especially to help aid relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve wellbeing. In some cases it can also help reduce pain, promote sleep, increase energy levels and reduce nausea and vomiting.
You will receive personalised non-invasive reflexology treatments dependent on your diagnosis, current health and well-being and with treatment times adapted to suit your individual needs. If required, I can also offer home visits.
Reflexology Lymph Drainage (RLD) is a groundbreaking specialist reflexology technique which stimulates specific lymphatic reflexes.
Research has shown this technique assists with the management of secondary lymphoedema occurring from the treatment of breast cancer. However, RLD is also beneficial for clients with other (non-cancer related) auto-immune inflammatory conditions.
NEPIP is an advanced reflexology technique, developed to focus on reducing stress and anxiety. It works on the principle that the body is connected – the nervous (Neuro) and endocrine (Endo) systems are linked through the brain (Psycho) via the immune system (Immuno) and are reflected in the feet (Pody).
It is a unique treatment in which the feet are worked simultaneously to improve the communication between the body’s systems, which are all affected by stress and anxiety, in order to restore balance and harmony.
Fertility Reflexology can benefit clients who are trying to naturally conceive and those undergoing fertility treatment such as IVF, ICSI and IUI. It primarily focuses on the reproductive and endocrine system helping to balance your hormones, regulate your menstrual cycle and relieve associated stress and anxiety.
Reflexology during pregnancy can provide you with protected time and space to relax and be with your growing baby. It can help with anxiety, sleep issues and can provide relief from lower back and pelvic pain (known as Pelvic Girdle Pain or Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction), swelling, oedema, and with heartburn and constipation.
The benefits of reflexology are equally as beneficial postpartum where you can have a treatment immediately after the birth of your baby.
Postpartum reflexology can help regulate your hormones, promote quality sleep and by stimulating the immune system it can aid the healing process from a natural or assisted birth. Your baby can come with you too where you both will have precious protected time for you to relax and connect. Home visits can also be offered.
