Reflexology

Reflexology is an ancient healing art based on the principle that reflexes in the foot correspond to all the glands, organs, and parts of the body.

By stimulating these reflex areas, the treatment directly corrects physical imbalances within the body and indirectly corrects emotional imbalances. Through reflexology, the energy pathways of the body are opened, and the body’s immune system is boosted so that the body will be given the opportunity to heal itself. This brings about a state of natural balance that will enable the body to function to its full capacity.

A reflexology treatment is deeply relaxing and benefits the body mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Reflexology can help in the following ways:

Stress reduction
Improvement in circulation
Toxin release
Hypertension relief
Induces relaxation
Increases energy levels
Balances the organs and structures of the body

This holistic treatment has been successful in the treatment of various ailments such as arthritis, asthma, infertility problems, insomnia, constipation, circulatory diseases, headaches, lymphedema, and back pain.

Athletes who have regular reflexology sessions, experience fewer injuries.

Reflexology has proved to be extremely effective in treating colic in infants.

In the field of oncology, an increasing number of consultants have recognised the benefits of this relaxing and calming therapy. Reflexology is accepted as standard practice in many maternity units.

Duration of Treatment

Courses of treatment vary in length, depending on the individual’s needs. Long-standing problems could require up to 6-8 sessions. Once one’s body has regained its equilibrium, an occasional treatment will stimulate the immune system to maintain its well-being.

Testimonials

If you had said to me ten years ago that I would be fully engaged in having reflexology in my life, I would not have believed you. The holistic approach that Maureen uses is so powerful. It has helped me heal from bad experiences and has been so supportive in my pregnancy. It is now an essential part of my well-being.

I wanted to try maternity reflexology to help with the fact that my baby was in breech position and Maureen had been recommended to me as a gifted reflexologist. I found her to be fantastic. She has a wonderful calming, authentic manner, which immediately puts you at ease. The session was insightful and reflective. I felt a strong response to the deeper significance of the work that she did, and the baby was very active during the treatment. The following day I had a scan and the baby had turned into the correct position. I know that this was thanks to the session with Maureen. I continue to see her for reflexology treatments throughout the year and I always leave her sessions feeling relaxed and empowered.
