How can reflexology help you?

The benefits of reflexology include its ability to stimulate nerve function, increase energy, boost circulation, aid relaxation, eliminate toxins and leave your body feeling balanced.

There are 7,000 nerve endings in your feet! Reflexology will strengthen your immune system and breathe life into your body, making you feel balanced, positive and full of energy!

Although I cannot diagnose medical conditions, I can hopefully help relieve the symptoms of many medical problems.

Reflexology is for everyone! You don't need to have a health concern to come along for a treatment. Reflexology will maintain your good health and boost your immune system and energy levels.

What to expect from your Reflexology treatment 

During your first treatment I will fill out a detailed consultation form which covers areas of your health and lifestyle. This will help me build up a picture of how I can offer you the best possible treatment.

The only things you will need to remove in a reflexology session are your shoes and socks. My treatment room, based at my home in Christchurch, offers a relaxing environment.

The treatment will begin with a warm up massage followed by the reflexology routine. This will be bespoke, focusing on all the body's systems whilst paying particular attention to any specific needs identified on your consultation form.

You will receive holistic aftercare advice after each treatment in order to prolong the effects. This includes information on general wellbeing and reflexology hand points for you to try at home.

As your therapist I will guarantee you confidentiality, respect and professionalism. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding how Reflexology can benefit you or a member of your family.

What is Reiki?

Originating in Japan by Dr Usui, Reiki uses universal life force energy for a simple, natural,  relaxing and healing treatment.

The intention of Reiki is to stimuate and assist the natural healing process. It is a peaceful treatment, which helps restore a sense of balance and wellbeing within the mind and body.

Chakras can be linked with Reiki. The seven main chakras: crown, third eye, throat, heart, solar plexus, sacral and root refer to energy points in our bodies. These spinning heels of energy should be open and alligned in order to bring balance and harmony to the  body, mind and spirit.

What to expect from your treatment

I recommend you wear loose, comfortable clothing to your treatment.

Your treatment will begin with you being wrapped in a soft blanket and invited to close your eyes. Your relaxation will be supported by theraputic sounds from a Tibetan singing bowl as an introduction to your Reiki journey.

During your treatment hand placements will either gently touch or lightly hover just above you at various points, transfering healing Reiki energy.

You may feel a slight tingling, heat, energy or nothing at all. The sensations are not a measure of Reiki, they are just how your body senses the energy. Reiki brings a sense of relaxation and peace. Your mind may feel calm and your physical body relaxed. It's ok to fall asleep during your treatment and you will still feel the benefit.

Your treatment will come to a close the way it began wth some gentle sound bathing and some guided breathing.
