About Toria Macgregor

Here’s a little of my story about how I came to find reflexology and the importance the feet played in my own healing journey.
Toria Macgregor, Reflexologist
I was in my late thirties when I first stumbled across reflexology.

At the time, I was working in a stressful corporate job and looking for a therapy that would help me to calm, what essentially felt like, a nervous system in overdrive.
 
Following that first reflexology session, I was – quite simply – stunned by the deep relaxation benefits along with the greater sense of clarity and focus. I later found that with regular treatments my monthly cycle regulated and was no longer so painful.
 
It was enough to spark my interest and start investigating further. 
 
Not long afterwards, I quit my corporate job and retrained as a reflexologist so I could share this relaxation therapy with others.

Reflexology for stress-relief and hormone health

The focus of my practice is helping clients to reduce symptoms of stress, whether they be anxiety, digestive complaints, hormonal problems, poor sleep patterns, fatigue, or pain or tension felt anywhere in the body. I regularly see the lasting changes that can occur when the body and mind enter a more restful state.
 
In light of the benefits I've experienced myself with reflexology, I also have a special interest in hormone health and helping women to soothe the changes that can come with the monthly cycle.
 
At the start of the reflexology treatment, I may invite you to use breathing techniques to move into a deeper state of relaxation. When appropriate, lifestyle tips and holistic aftercare advice are included within your session.
"Intuitive, gentle and extremely empathic, Toria has a unique touch that needs to be experienced to be understood. I would sincerely recommend her services."

Specialist reflexology training

Each year, I embark on self-directed study and specialist reflexology training to develop and hone my skills. I also attend regular industry webinars and events to stay up-to-date with latest research and insights.

I qualified as a reflexologist through the York School of Holistic Therapies in North Yorkshire (UK). Since then, I have completed additional training in:
  • Reflexology & Women's Health – Reflexology Academy, London
  • Fertility Reflexology – Green Tara College, Ireland
  • Structural Bodywork Arches & Legs – Anatomy Trains, Fremantle
  • Introduction to Nerve Reflexology – Carol Samuel, Reflex Master UK
  • Mindful Reflexology (for Stress, Anxiety and Depression) – Sally Earlam Reflexology, UK

Natural health and other therapies

My interest in natural health and healing modalities began a long time ago.

Along with immersing in various meditation practices, teachings and yoga retreats, I have also completed courses in natural health, namely Nutritional Health and Natural Skincare, both run by the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London.

Additionally, I am a Reiki Practitioner (Level II) and an Access Consciousness Bars Practitioner.

"The feet are the physical foundation of the body. If their structure is not in balance it will throw the entire body out of alignment."
