Benefits of Reflexology
Reflexology promotes a sense of deep relaxation and calm. It helps balance and restore your body which helps reduce anxiety and stress. Reflexology can bring a renewed feeling of energy and strength.
During my reflexology treatments I use soothing music, candles, eye bags, weighted blankets, windchimes and tuning forks to further promote relaxation and the bodies natural healing process.
Deep Relaxation
Reflexology aims to bring about a state of deep relaxation and help the bodies own healing process. Reflexology may help you feel less stressed, more relaxed, and more energised. Pressing on areas of the feet in a calming way stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system. This helps to relax the body and has positive effects on your breathing, blood flow, immune response, and more. Reflexology can help to unblock energy pathways and help the body re-balance itself leaving you feeling calm, content and relaxed.
Boosts Metabolism
Reflexology can aid in improving metabolism by increasing blood circulation, which helps deliver more oxygen to vital organs and improving your overall wellbeing and healthy functioning of the body. Reflexology can target specific reflex points, such as the thyroid gland, which plays an important role in metabolism and growth and development in our bodies.
Reduces Stress & Anxiety
Stress is something which we all experience and cope with differently. Your body can get stuck in a state of constantly feeling stressed basically stuck in your bodies fight or flight mode. Reflexology is very effective in working alongside other professionals and practitioners in helping people manage their anxiety and stress. By gently working on the reflex points relating to specific areas of the body, Reflexology can produce a deep state of relaxation in body and mind. By activating the parasympathetic nervous system (which is responsible for the bodies "rest and digest" response) helps the body relax after being on high alert.
Promotes Healthier Sleep Patterns
When your body has a hormone imbalance your normal cycles/biorhythms can get thrown into disarray. Reflexology can help improve sleep. Reflexology may help improve your sleep by providing a natural way to balance and relax the body. Pressure on certain reflex points encourages the nervous system to calm and relax helping promote a healthier sleep cycle.
Improves Circulation and blood Flow
Reflexology can help to improve blood circulation. It is common knowledge that stress can affect blood circulation. When you have a reflexology treatment, pressure on reflex points promotes blood flow to the area. Reflexology promotes the release of tension and blockages in the nervous system, which can improve blood flow to all your vital organs and tissue helping you feel healthier and happier.
Improves Digestion and Toxin Release
Reflexology can help improve digestion by stimulating reflex points which correspond to the digestive system organs and stimulating optimum functioning and health. Reflexology can boost the immune system by stimulating the lymphatic system, helping remove toxins and waste, and help fight infections. Targeting reflex points linked to the lymphatic system enhances the bodies natural detox process, strengthening immune health and improving overall wellbeing.
Energy Balancing
Reflexology can unblock congested energy pathways that run throughout our body allowing the free flow of natural energy reducing any tension/bad energy held within us. Reflexology can leave your body feeling rejuvenated and less fatigued. In reflexology the Solar Plexus is known as the energy core and a place to tap into your inner strength and channel your energy.
Emotional Release
Clients can often experience an emotional healing journey with their physical one during and after reflexology. You might experience an emotional release through its connection to the bodies energy pathways and relaxation response. A release of emotions is a sign that your body is detoxing and healing itself. Most people find a sense of calm and relaxation, others find it uplifting and energising. Your bodies response to your treatment will be individual to you - just remember to let go and feel into the treatment and enjoy the wonderful benefits.
