Reflexology


 
Reflexology is a gentle treatment involving applying pressure to presise reflex areas of the feet.

The pressure applied is generally firm but not heavy and not intended to be painful.
However having said this some people do find it uncomfortable as certain areas of the feet can be quite sensitive. Areas where there is more discomfort are said to indicate that the corresponding part of the body is more 'out of balance' or in need of treatment than those areas that do not produce pain or discomfort.

I often include a few minutes of Reflexolgy into both my Osteopathic and Naturopathic treatments. Unfortunately time does not ususally allow for more than this, but it is often sufficient to once again to help gauge where problems in the body lie.

Full Reflexology treatments are also available. These take a full treatment time and start with a foot bath in warm scented water.
