Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to feel unwell to come for a Reflexology session?
Not at all. It is so deeply relaxing and is just a way to keep yourself in optimum condition.
What conditions can Reflexology help?
Reflexology has been found to be very effective in dealing with:
Fertility issues
Stress-related conditions
Back and shoulder pains
Sleep disorders
Digestive problems
Hormonal imbalances
Who should not have Reflexology?
Anyone with Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) or a contagious illness should not have a Reflexology treatment. Please let me know if you have been diagnosed with any condition like diabetes, any cancer, AIDS, shingles or are on medication for any illness when telephoning to make an appointment. I will advice you if you need to check with your GP and get a letter clearing you to have Reflexology.
Will it be painful?
No, it should'nt be. If you do feel a slight sensitivity or tenderness in a particular area, it may be because there is an imbalance there and usually, by the end of the session it should have cleared, unless it is a long- standing condition.
How many sessions will I need?
As explained above, any long-standing conditions will need at least 3-4 sessions to start feeling a difference. If you are having Reflexology just to keep yourself in optimum health, then a session every month is fine.
What will I need to wear?
You can wear anything you find comfortable - all you will need to remove before a treatment will be your footwear including tights/socks.
What happens when I go for a treatment?
A first treatment could take about an hour and a quarter because I like to have a chat about your health, past and present, your diet and lifestyle, how you deal with stress and any condition that you may have.
The treatment itself lasts about 45 minutes. At the end of it you have time to gently gather yourself, have a drink of water and a talk about the treatment.
Treatment cost:
The charge for the first session is £50 and all subsequent sessions are £45.
