Reflexology

"I first came for treatment after reading an article in the Daily Mail. I was in a mess having had agoraphobia for two years. I had been through all the usual channels of doctors, counsellors and medication.

After speaking to you, the next challenge was how to get to see you. Your advice was invaluable, and I made it! I allowed myself to be taken into the little warm haven of your clinic, and I remember the comfort of being there. I remember feeling safe, and that was the beginning of my recovery.

Each time I came I seemed to move on, and sometimes I galloped on. I started to notice things around me and actually start to find myself again. I can't believe how far I have travelled. It has been a joy to return to life and I have learnt so much that has enriched me. I can now go out and about as I want and am even learning how to do this myself with you. Thanks for everything."

Treatments in Gentle Touch Reflexology

Treatments

A treatment of Reflexology using the Gentle Touch™ Technique lasts for approximately one hour. On the first visit the client is asked some basic details about their health and then settled comfortably into a reclining chair. The Practitioner uses a very light oil to gently massage both feet. The treatment feels like an extremely light, pleasurable and soothing foot massage with no pain or major discomfort. Contrary to some people's expectations it does not tickle or hurt. It is a lovely foot massage that is particularly good for you.

Reflexology treatments can help people of all ages

The Practitioner will assess the feet to give indications of how best to help the client and then gently massage all areas of the feet. The Practitioner will be feeling for minute variations in the foot, skin and tissue. Practitioners will vary their treatment according to information gained from the client and observations of the feet (including shape, temperature, colour and general appearance.

Some clients find the treatment so relaxing that they go to sleep, whilst others take the opportunity to talk. All clients are encouraged to have a rest in the chair after the treatment, to allow the healing to continue before they leave to continue their lives. Sometime relaxing music may be played during their rest.
