About Reflexology

Reflexology or Reflex Zone Therapy is an ancient healing art which aims to benefit a person’s health by massaging their feet. There have been many depictions of the practice of reflexology being used particularly in Egypt thousands of years ago. The feet reflect the whole body – the toes represent the head and the heals represent the sacral area etc. The left foot represents the left half of the body and the right foot represents the right half of the body. People who have reflexology treatments find them relaxing, de-stressing, soothing for swollen feet and can feel better from headaches or lower backache if they suffer from those things. The more treatments a person has, the more benefits they will notice and the longer the benefits will last.

During a Reflexology treatment a short case history is taken to establish and health issues. The feet are then cleaned and approximately 20 minutes are spent massaging each foot using finger and thumb pressure. A Reflexology treatment can last 45 mins to 1 hour.
