Using a specific touch technique (which could be described as a cross between massage and acupressure) a practitioner can assist the body reach its natural state of well-being.

Reflexology is a gentle, non-invasive form of bodywork that is ideal for anyone of any age.

Although reflexology acts as a general tonic for all systems in the body, reflexology is particularly beneficial for:

• Reducing stress and tension
• Musculoskeletal tension – neck, shoulder, lower back and sciatica
• Assisting the reproductive system and controlling hormonal fluctuations, which can help women who are pre-menstrual, menopausal, pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
• Pain control - headaches, sinus, menstrual cramps, childbirth, arthritis, fibromyalgia, etc.
• Asthma - helps to strengthen lung and bronchial tissue
• Disharmony within the digestive system - constipation, hyperacidic stomach, etc.
• Insomnia or sleeping difficulties
