What is reflexology?
Reflexology is a deeply relaxing complementary therapy that supports whole-body healing. Dating back to Ancient Egypt, it is based on the principle that the body’s structures, organs and systems can be mapped to 'reflexes' found on the feet and ankles.
Reflexology accesses points on the feet that correspond with the rest of the body
A reflexologist uses specialised foot massage techniques to systematically access the many hundreds of reflexes on the feet. Your feet are home to thousands of nerve endings, which is one of the explanations as to why the practice can be so effective.
Imbalances may be detected in certain areas, just as you may feel some points to be tender. By unblocking these imbalances, symptoms can be improved.
Reflexology is cumulative, so the more sessions you have the more benefits you'll notice.
Depending on your wellness goals, a series of four to six sessions may be recommended. Though many clients report noticing a difference after just one session.

A reset for your nervous system
High-stress environments, trauma and daily micro-stresses each engage our nervous systems in ways that can place you in a state of fight, flight or freeze. In fact, it is estimated that 75–90 per cent of diseases and health problems are related to the activation of the stress system.
There are times when our nervous systems need to be in high alert. But being in this state for extended periods – and on a regular basis– can become an incredible strain, both physically and mentally.
Regular reflexology sessions help to soothe the nervous system so you can more easily live from a place of groundedness within yourself. It is in this place where you can conserve energy to use for later, where your food can be properly digested, and where true healing can happen.
During a reflexology session you may find that the busy-ness of the mind slides away, helping you to unwind and let go. If you're feeling any pain or tension in the body, it is common for this to loosen up and release. Many clients report feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and with a greater sense of peace after their treatments.
If you'd like to see whether this holistic therapy could work for you, there really is no better way than simply experiencing it for yourself.
