Face, Hands & Feet

Reflexology works on the principle that every organ and system of the body has a corresponding point or zone in the feet. For example, the spot in the centre of the big toe corresponds to the pituitary gland, and a point at the centre top of your foot corresponds to your diaphragm.

How does it work?
Light pressure is used to thumb walk massage each of the points in the toes, feet and ankles to release tension, remove blockages, disperse accumulations of calcium and uric acid, stimulate blood circulation and promote healing of both body and mind through encouraging homeostasis.

What does it involve?
Gentle pressure is applied to each pressure point and, where there are corresponding physical problems, the client may experience some slight discomfort and/or the therapist may feel some blockages in the area. For example, when the practitioner touches the reflex point that corresponds to the colon, if the client has a problem with that organ, then some discomfort may be felt in the foot.
Generally, most clients report that a reflexology treatment is wonderfully relaxing and soothing, and many people fall asleep. Each session lasts about an hour and, in most cases, a series of sessions are necessary to resolve any problems. Some clients book a regularly weekly or monthly session as a preventative measure, to keep their systems balanced and in good working order.

What are the benefits?
Reflexology can be used to help with conditions such as, eczema, migraine, PMS and menopausal problems, chronic fatigue, stress, depression and anxiety. bronchitis or insomnia for which the client is seeking immediate treatment; or it can be used to keep the body’s energy flowing and the mind in balance.

All facials are individualised and personalised for each client. If you need a skin brightener then I shall use products and methods to revive and rejuvenate. If you want to try and combat wrinkles or dry skin, I will use appropriate products with anti-ageing and collagen boosting massage techniques. For those that need to detoxify their skin and eliminate impurities, I will deep cleanse and use refining products without dehydrating the skin. Whatever your requirement, I will do a facial that fits.
