Reflexology

Reflexology is a soothing non-evasive treatment used to promote healing within the body via the feet.

Reflexology helps aid healing within physical and emotional issues. Reflex points are mapped on the feet as a mirror image of the body’s internal organs. By applying pressure and sensing blockages or imbalances within each area, the practitioner can gain a holistic overview of the client’s needs.

Common issues such as back, neck and shoulder discomfort, digestive problems, hormonal issues and circulation issues can be addressed by stimulating the reflex points and flushing lactic and uric acid build up away from the organ reflex points.

The practitioner is primarily acting as a mediator to activate the client’s own healing potential. Before the session, you will have the opportunity to let your massage therapist know about any problem areas you might want to target during your reflexology to ensure you get the most from your session.

Reduce pain

About this treatment

Why this treament?

Reflexology with Sam Joyce

Reflexology is a holistic complementary therapy using pressure techniques. It is based on the theory that our feet are a direct microcosm of the whole body, containing reflex points which correspond to different organs, and glands within the body. By addressing imbalances in tissues, organs, and systems to restore well-being, the aim of Reflexology is to enable the body to reach a state of homeostasis, meaning internal harmony and balance.

Many find the experience of reflexology deeply relaxing and restorative for both the body and mind. Reflexology has also been cited as having many health benefits including improved sleep quality, relaxed muscles, and increased circulation. After illness, injury or periods of stress the body’s systems are often thrown out of balance and its vital energy pathways become blocked, stopping the body from functioning effectively. By applying pressure with your thumbs and fingers to stimulate these reflexes, a state of deep relaxation is triggered which allows the nervous system to calm down. Together with improved circulation, the body is encouraged to restore its normal healthy balance and overall sense of well-being.

Reflexology with Tara Gristwood

By combining reflexology with energy healing the practitioner can help clear blocked chakra’s (the energy centres that affect our physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing), allowing energy to move freely easing trauma in the physical, emotional and energetic body.

Emotional issues such as sadness, grieving, anger, frustration and lack of nurture can also be reflected in the reflex points. Blocks in the lungs represent sadness or grieving, the liver represents repressed anger, kidneys indicate frustration, reproductive organs in both men and women can show the need to nurture. This can help the client understand how to address emotional blocks that could be developing into physical symptoms as the body will often try to gain our attention to dis-ease by creating pain. Our feet can literally tell our story!
