Reflexology
Reflexology is a gentle, deeply relaxing therapy based on the principle that different areas of the feet correspond with different areas of the body. By applying gentle pressure to specific reflex points, the treatment encourages relaxation and supports the body's natural ability to restore balance.
I have been practising reflexology for over 26 years and, for me, it has always been about much more than simply working with the feet. Every person is different and every treatment unfolds differently, so I work intuitively and allow the session to be guided by what you need at the time – physically, emotionally and energetically.
Over the years I have found that people are often drawn to me for more than the physical treatment alone. During a session I may intuitively pick up on emotions, patterns or messages that feel relevant to you, and these can naturally become part of our time together. Sometimes simply talking about what arises can bring a completely different perspective to something you have been carrying.
Where appropriate, I may also incorporate Reiki and energy work, guided breathing, visualisation or positive affirmations. There is no set formula and nothing is imposed. Some people simply want to switch off and enjoy their reflexology treatment, while others welcome the opportunity to explore the deeper emotional, energetic or spiritual aspects of their wellbeing.
I believe our physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing are closely connected, which is why my approach has developed over the years to look at the whole person rather than one symptom in isolation.
Treatments take place in my peaceful therapy lodge within the garden, providing a quiet and private space where you can relax, reconnect with yourself and simply have some time for you.
Treatments generally last around 45–60 minutes, although this may vary depending on the individual session.
Hand Reflexology
Reflexology can also be carried out on the hands and may be used either as an alternative to working on the feet or alongside foot reflexology. This can be particularly useful when working with certain areas of tension, including the hands, wrists and arms.
Vertical Reflexology Technique (VRT)
VRT is a specialised form of reflexology carried out briefly while you are standing and weight-bearing. Working with the reflexes in this way allows me to use a different approach to conventional seated or reclining reflexology.
A VRT sequence usually takes only a few minutes and can be incorporated into a normal reflexology treatment where I feel it may be beneficial. I may combine VRT with traditional reflexology techniques depending on what I find during your session and what feels most appropriate for you.
