Reflexology for Holistic Health
in Balsall Common, Solihull & Warwickshire
A natural way to promote health, relaxation and wellbeing
Clinical Reflexology in Balsall Common, Solihull, Coventry and Warwickshire
Clinical Reflexology is a safe, non-invasive complementary therapy that is based on the theory that different points or reflexes on the feet, lower leg, hands and ears link to every part of the body. While working on the feet a Reflexologist can stimulate over 7,000 nerves!
By applying gentle pressure and stimulating these reflexes it encourages the body to go into a deep state of relaxation which in turn encourages the body’s own natural ability to heal itself.
How Reflexology Works and Its Benefits
How Clinical Reflexology Works
Each part of the body sends messages back and forth along neural pathways. If these pathways become blocked it may lead to stress and illness. Stimulating these reflex points can lead to improved circulation, elimination of toxins and decreased tension and anxiety encouraging the body to re-balance itself towards optimum health.
A reflexology treatment is the perfect way to regain balance, harmony and and an overall sense of well-being in mind, body and spirit.

Reflexology as a Complementary Therapy
Reflexology is an ancient therapy that has been practised for over 5000 years. It was introduced to the Western world by Eunice Ingham in the 1930s. She used ‘zone therapy’ which showed that the feet were a mirror image of the body.
Reflexology is a complementary therapy which can work very well alongside conventional medicine to provide optimal health.
We acknowledge that every person is unique and some people find other things improve as well – the only way to know if reflexology will help you is to try it!
Reflexology should never be used in place of seeking medical advice and is not a substitute for medical treatment. If you have any health concerns or illness you should always consult your doctor. A reflexologist does not diagnose, cure or prescribe.

Reflexologist in Balsall Common, near Solihull, Kenilworth & Coventry
I’ve been interested in finding natural ways for health and beauty for many years. As a teenager I would buy chamomile flowers from Culpepers, the herbal shop named after Nicholas Culpeper (1616-54) who was an English apothecary and physician. By steeping these flowers in a bowl of water it would make a lovely natural infusion that I’d wash my hair in which lightened it naturally! Chamomile is a well-known herb that is considered a great healer both to the physical, emotional and spiritual elements of the body. So, it would seem I had already started my journey into complementary health!
What My Clients Say...
FAQs
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
This is very much dependent on the reason you’re seeking a treatment and your individual response to reflexology. Many clients who are looking for relaxation and stress relief feel benefits immediately after their first treatment. They then continue to return regularly, fortnightly or monthly.
Clients who visit for a specific issue or symptom/s will benefit from more frequent treatments and I might initially recommend a course of 6-weekly treatments, then moving onto fortnightly then monthly ‘maintenance’ treatments as their health and wellbeing improves. This is something that we can discuss at the first initial treatment.
Please be assured that there is never any pressure to book further treatments. You can return as and when you wish. At each treatment I will ask you if there are any changes and will adjust your treatment plan as necessary based on this and any imbalances that I might find when working your feet.
Please feel free to book just one treatment. Then you can see if reflexology is for you.
I’M HAVING TREATMENT FOR CANCER, CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIOTHERAPY, CAN I STILL HAVE REFLEXOLOGY?
Absolutely yes, having reflexology can aid wellbeing throughout the difficult time of chemo treatment.
I DON’T HAVE ANY AILMENTS OR FEEL PARTICULARLY STRESSED. WILL I STILL BENEFIT FROM A REFlEXOLOGY TREAtMENT?
Yes! Reflexology can have many positive effects, both physically and emotionally. Taking proactive steps for your health and wellbeing with regular reflexology treatments can encourage your body to maintain a healthy balance. This means your body will be in a better position to deal with any illnesses or stresses that may come your way.

HOW WILL I FEEL AFTER A TREATMENT?
Everyone responds differently and most people feel relaxed and rested with an overall sense of well-being. Occasionally some people experience a slight headache, increased thirst, tiredness or need to go to the toilet more. All this is perfectly normal and is the body reacting to detoxification. It usually lasts no longer than 24-48 hours. You are advised to take it easy for the rest of the day following your treatment and to drink plenty of water to encourage removal of toxins from your body.
