Reflexology

Reflexology

A wonderfully relaxing treatment with many health benefits. Reflexology is a holistic therapy based on the principle that reflex points in the feet are linked to specific parts of the body. By applying pressure with fingers and thumbs to the reflex points, reflexology can encourage relaxation and the body’s natural healing processes.

Clients have found that treatments can:

  • Reduce stress and anxiety;
  • Lift mood;
  • Improve sleep;
  • Aid pain relief (including that associated with back and pelvic pain, arthritis and headaches);
  • Help with digestive issues.

    Clients also find reflexology helpful with symptoms of menopause, PMT and issues surrounding fertility.

Maternity Reflexology

Helen specialises in Maternity Reflexology and Women's Health,clients report that they feel many benefits of reflexology throughout their maternity journey:

First Trimester
Reflexology offers relaxation and support at a time when hormone levels fluctuate and anxieties often occur.

Second and Third Trimester
Reflexology can be used to support general well-being and sleep patterns as well as help with some of the physical symptoms associated with pregnancy and reducing stress leading upto the birth.

Preparation for Birth
As you get closer to you due date you may find it useful to have treatments a little more frequently as it can help you to relax the body and prepare for labour, reduce anxiety and allow you precious time to focus on yourself and your baby.

Post-natal
As your reflexologist I can continue to provide support once your baby has arrived. You may also be interested in Serenity Babies with Helen Baby Massage classes.
