What happens in a treatment?

You will travel to your home within a 30 minute radius of SE15. I use a Lafuma chair for your comfort which will be set up with sheets, towels and blankets. To support my understanding and the treatment offered we will discuss your medical history, lifestyle and reason for treatment which we’ll capture in a short form. I’ll begin the treatment by adding some Songbirds reflexology balm to your feet which is 100% natural and work this into the feet with a relaxing and opening effleurage (light massage strokes) sequence on both feet. The reflexology treatment will then begin on the right foot followed by the left foot and we will close the session with some closing effleurage on both feet and some deep and restorative deep breaths where you will come back into your own energy.

What will I feel during a treatment?

That really depends on how you are feeling and any symptom patterns you may be experiencing. You may feel some tingling on your feet or throughout your body, an area may feel sensitive to my touch. These feelings are showing us possible imbalances and releases of blocked energy. Reflexology will never hurt or cause harm.

What is reflexology balm

I used Songbirds balm which is 100% natural and is a waxy consistency so that  it gives the correct amount of grip/slip ratio for Reflexology treatments. 

I like to use Tea Tree and Mint which includes essential oils of Spearmint, Peppermint and Tea Tree. Both Spearmint and Peppermint are cooling, cleansing and stimulating, whilst the Tea Tree is a well known anti-bacterial and anti-fungal essential oil which balances the formula. 

For specific hormonal treatments I use Balance Blend (formally Womans blend). The essential oils used in this blend have traditionally been used in aromatherapy to provide feelings of emotional balance. The scent most likely to come to the fore when inhaling this blend is Geranium, which is then perfectly balanced by the musky and regal notes of Frankincense. Bergamot provides a pleasant, citrusy aroma. One of the most uplifting essential oils, it aids in lifting the spirits and relieving stress.

What if I’ve hurt my foot or ankle?

We can work on your hands and the connected reflex points on the body. For example, for a sore ankle we can work on the wrist point.

What is the reason for treatment / do I need something specific?

Not at all, your reason for treatment can be anything you like. It’s completely personal to you. Reasons range from simply some time to relax and unwind or to support with a specific pain or ailment. Reflexology cannot cure but it can support and ease symptom patterns. 

Common reasons for treatment include (but are not limited too); headaches, back pain, hormonal imbalance, insomnia, digestion issues and so much more. 

Can you diagnose illness or issues?

I am not qualified to diagnose any health issues for you. We will discuss any imbalances that appear and I may suggest a referral to another holistic practitioner or medical professional if I think this will be benefits. Reflexology as a treatment or me as a practitioner can and will never medically diagnose.

Is Reflexology Right for You?

Reflexology is suitable for most people and can complement other treatments or therapies. Whether you're looking to reduce stress, manage pain, or simply enjoy a little relaxation time reflexology offers a natural, non-invasive way to support your well-being.

However, if you have any specific health concerns or conditions (like severe foot problems or certain medical conditions), it’s always a good idea to consult your doctor before booking a session.
