Reflexology - Your First Steps to Wellbeing
Initial Consultation
When you get in touch, we'll have a friendly chat about what brings you to reflexology and how I may be able to help. This initial conversation helps me understand your needs and ensures reflexology is right for you.
Your First Session
Your first visit begins with a relaxed consultation where we'll discuss your health history, lifestyle, and what you'd like to achieve from reflexology. I'll ask about any medical conditions, medications, and recent treatments to ensure your safety and tailor the session to your needs.
During the treatment itself, you'll recline comfortably while I work on your feet. You only need to remove your shoes and socks, and I'll explain everything as we go along. After the session, we'll take time to discuss how you found the treatment and plan any future sessions.
Mobile Reflexology
Prefer to enjoy your treatment at home? I bring my professional equipment with me for home treatments. I can work with whatever furniture the client has in their home. Mobile treatments are £40 for a 45-minute session, including a 15-minute consultation. This service covers Colne, Barnoldswick, Gargrave, Skipton and surrounding areas. Please contact me for more information.
The Principles of Reflexology
Reflexology works with the principle that specific points on your feet correspond to different areas of your body. Through gentle but firm pressure on these reflex points, reflexology may help restore balance to your body's systems naturally. I am now incorporating Osteopathic Reflexology into my treatments. These techniques involve fascia opening on the arms, lower legs and feet.
These techniques are good for maintaining good health and well-being. I can offer regular Reflexology treatments , or a treatment including Osteopathic Reflexology. It is up to the client.
Promoting Deep Relaxation
When I apply these specialised techniques to your feet, it can promote deep relaxation, allowing your body to enter a state where natural healing is encouraged. Many clients find this deeply calming effect helps reduce stress hormones and promote the release of endorphins - your body's natural feel-good chemicals.
Supporting Overall Wellbeing
The treatment may help balance your nervous system, support hormonal harmony, improve circulation and encourage lymphatic drainage. Many clients report improved sleep patterns, reduced physical tension, and a greater sense of wellbeing as their body's natural healing processes are supported.
Many clients find reflexology beneficial for:
Sleep patterns and relaxation
Stress and anxiety management
Digestive comfort
Joint mobility and tension
Emotional wellbeing
General wellness and vitality
While reflexology isn't a substitute for medical treatment, many clients tell me they experience improved wellbeing and find it complements their healthcare routine.
Comfortable, loose clothing is ideal. You'll only need to remove your shoes and socks.
