Reflexology: A Holistic Treatment
Reflexology is a holistic therapy which aims to bring balance to the body. By stimulating different areas of the feet, which act as a sort of “map” to the rest of the body, reflexology supports all body systems, reducing the intensity of many common ailments.
Whether you are looking for a once off treatment to promote relaxation or more on-going support to help alleviate a particular concern, reflexology treatments are always tailored to your unique needs. Reflexology has become one of the most popular complementary therapies in Ireland, with thousands experiencing the benefits of this ancient practice.
BENEFITS OF REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology can provide relief for various conditions and symptoms, including:
Headaches/Migraine
Fertility Support
Insomnia
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Respiratory Problems
Hormonal Conditions: such as thyroid disorders and PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)

… and much more!
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR TREATMENT
A reflexology treatment is performed with you lying down (or semi-reclined), fully clothed except for the feet and lower legs. Reflexology is deeply relaxing and helps restore and rebalance all your body systems, including your nervous system. Many clients will fall asleep during the treatment. Each reflexology treatment takes approximately 45 minutes (plus 10 minutes for a consultation since your last treatment) and costs €60 per session.

ARE YOU PREGNANT?
Are you currently pregnant? Reflexology is a holistic therapy that is safe for all trimesters and stages of pregnancy. It can help to balance your body’s systems to reduce ailments such as morning sickness, heartburn, indigestion, constipation, sciatica and low back pain. Regular reflexology treatments during pregnancy may help prepare your body for labour, boost energy levels and promote relaxation.
Maternity reflexology is an area I specialise in, as I have seen the many benefits it has for moms to be. There is also some research showing those who receive regular reflexology treatments have shorter labours!

HOT STONE REFLEXOLOGY
Using hot stones during a reflexology treatment adds an additional element of stress relief. The heat from the stones promotes relaxation and allows the therapy to work at a deeper level.
