Reflexology is an ancient practice which dates back to 2330BC ~ a series of pictures were found on the walls of the tomb of Ankmahor in Egypt depicting what appeared to be a foot massage! In the early twentieth century an American ear, nose and throat physician Dr William Fitzgerald introduced Zone Therapy which forms the basis of reflexology today.

There are approximately 7000 nerve endings or “reflexes” in the feet that relate to every organ, system and function of the body. By using a smooth systematic massage technique to stimulate the nerve endings in the feet this sends positive messages throughout the body. This rhythmical touch encourages relaxation which allows the body’s own self-healing powers to come into action.

The feet offer a “map” of the whole body and access to all systems and organs therefore this non-intrusive therapy can help many conditions such as:-

• Stress and Anxiety
• Headaches and Migraines
• Digestive problems
• Menstrual problems
• Infertility
• Back Pain
• Insomnia

A full reflexology treatment will last approximately 60 minutes including pre and post consultation and is available after 6pm in the evenings by prior appointment.
