Reflexology and Pain Management

By gently working the “reflex points” on specific areas of the body, reflexology induces a state of relaxation that eases tension, stimulates the release of the body’s natural painkillers called endorphins, interrupts pain pathways and suppresses the transmission of signals to the spinal cord and brain that may trigger a pain response.

For clients suffering from pain, reflexology is a safe, effective and non-invasive therapy. It is a natural, drug free way to manage pain and improve quality of life.

Foot Reflexology

Foot Reflexology involves applying gentle pressure to reflex points on the foot using specific hand and finger techniques. Our feet are under constant pressure, and tension and stress though friction and repeated trauma may cause blockages that impinge on muscles and nerves. A reflexology session helps to break up deposits of toxic by-products, and given that the feet are relatively large, allows for the precise working of stresses that may have accumulated.

Foot reflexology is deeply relaxing and an ideal choice for someone who is suffering from anxiety or stress or experiencing bodily pain. Additional benefits include releasing tensions, increased circulation, improved digestion and helping the body to function optimally.

Hot Stone Reflexology

Hot Stone Reflexology is a popular variation of foot reflexology using traditional Basalt stones. The placement of the stones warms and activates the specific reflex areas of the feet and legs while the heat of the stones is released deep into the tissues. The treatment is very grounding, relaxing and healing. Hot Stone Therapy provides all the benefits that any foot reflexology treatment would provide as well as increasing metabolism, stimulating the elimination of toxins and provides a deeply profound level of relaxation that can last for days.
