Reflexology

Heather finds that there are three types of people who come to her for reflexology.

The first category of people are those who have a specific complaint, sometimes for sports or performance related issues. Heather has found that the clients who fit into this category often find real benefits from reflexology, including alleviation of symptoms and relief from pain. Heather has treated clients with persistent pain who reported significant improvements in their levels of pain for many days.

The second category of clients is those who come for the relief of stress. Depending on the levels of stress these people often benefit from a course of treatment because they use reflexology to manage the difficulties they face in life. If the stress is relatively minor then once a month may be enough. For others once a week is far more useful time span.

The third category of clients is those who come to Heather because Reflexology is wonderfully relaxing and they are treating themselves to several days of feeling absolutely amazing. It is an indulgence akin to a spa day but much more accessible and timely for a lot of people.

Reflexology is still considered an alternative treatment but “There’s plenty of anecdotal evidence of its effectiveness but unfortunately very little in the way of clinical trials.

“There have been a number of small studies that show reflexology is good for pain, improves circulation and helps relaxation among other things.

“The only way we can change (sceptical) people’s minds is by treating them and letting them see for themselves how they feel afterwards.”

Quotations from an article by Rupert French reflexologist rf-reflexology.co.uk

Georgia: “I hate having my feet touched, so I was sceptical to say the least about trying reflexology. It was weird having someone casually chat to you whilst they massaged your feet, but after a short time, I completely relaxed into it.

“I went for a long walk later that day and it was genuinely like walking on clouds – I felt so light and full of energy… though I’m aware that might be a placebo effect.

“That said, my first experience with reflexology pleasantly surprised me. I’d definitely be more willing to get treatments more regularly if they were affordable.”

Alice:“I went into the session very intrigued and a tiny bit cynical, as I’m sure most people do.

“ (It was) only … on my feet but I could feel the effects throughout my whole body – plus I had the best night’s sleep.

“Don’t let preconceptions hold you back from trying reflexology. If you suffer from any kind of pain, stress or insomnia, it’s definitely worth a go – at worst, it will leave you extremely relaxed and ready for a nap.”
