Reflexology
Reflexology
60 minutes – £40.00
Reflexology, is a combination of relaxing massage, and unique thumb pressure, working on the 10 vertical zones, throughout the treatment, the reflexologist, works on the Chinese belief of positive energy flow.
Clients have reported
> Deeply relaxing
> Calms the central nervous system
> The body fights off a cold quicker
> Sinus issues improve
> Recovery time improved after operations
> Improves digestion
> Eases arthritic pain

British scientists have found that nerves connect to the skin and internal organs.
They also discovered the body’s entire nervous system tends to adjust to outside factors, including touch.
The added benefit of Reflexology is that it assists the body’s own healing system, enabling the body to dispose of uric and lactic acid, which builds up in the blood capillaries.
Homeostasis is achieved by Reflexology and other therapies.
A course of five treatments is the recommended amount to start with, then once a month to maintain the benefits.

What is Healing
Living nature, that’s trees, animals, insects, birds, people and the universe, have measurable energy.
The powerful energy connection between healer, animal or person receiving, is a helping hand for the self healing, repairing and smoothing out any physical, emotional, mental and spiritual irregularities, assisting the healer to improve your natural energy flow and well-being.
Healing is never substituted for medical care or advice, from a health care professional, just as it shouldn't be substituted for veterinary care and advice, for your animals and pets.
No belief system is necessary to receive healing as there are no religious connotations.
