Some frequently asked questions...
A foot or facial reflexology session is typically 60 minutes. There are options for longer treatments 75-90 minutes combining the two or with additional zone face lift and indian head massage treatments. Please see the price list below for treatment options and costs.

Though a very gentle therapy, reflexology can have very powerful emotional and physcial effects. Increase in the symptoms currently experiencing for example:
- Fatigue
- Muscle ache
- Headaches
- Flatulence
- Diarrhoea
- A desire to urinate or defecate and a change in odour or colour
- Nausea (especially if being treated for digestive problems)
- Runny nose or cough (especially if being treated for sinus problems)
- Change in sleep patterns
- Heightened emotional reactions
Reactions to the treatment are perfectly normal and is just the body cleansing itself of toxins and encouraging rebalance in the body, these side effects normally stop after a few treatments. It is also vital to understand that any negative reactions, doesn't mean that reflexology has done any harm. On the contrary, it indicates that it is having a deep balancing effect on your body.

Typical Reflexology Session
A foot reflexology appointment involves massage and pressure application treatment to the feet. You can choose to sit back or lie on a couch with your socks and shoes off. During and after the treatment you will experience a very relaxing and calming feeling.
Single appointments are available to aid general wellbeing, or a course of treatments (approximately four sessions) may help with particular condition/s.
I offer a complementary 15-minute consultation prior to your first treatment to explain reflexology and assess medical conditions and lifestyle. I use this to help plan the best treatment for you. All information will be kept confidential.
