Reflexology
Reflexology is a ancient form which has the ability to stimulate the bodyís own natural ability to heal and rebalance itself. The feet contain reflex areas which correspond to all the organs and systems in the body. By applying pressure to the feet, we can stimulate these reflex areas and enhance the functioning of the corresponding organs and systems. This is done via the stimulus to the nervous, circulatory and endocrine systems. Although there are similarities between reflexology, acupressure and acupuncture, reflexology is a distinct therapy and has its own specific theory and manipulation techniques. Reflexology can be used purely for relaxation however it has a valuable role to play in supporting health and wellbeing. For more information on our Reflexologist visit www.lesleymunro.co.uk
Reflexology during Pregnancy
From the second trimester onwards, Reflexology can support the wellbeing of mums-to-be, offering relaxation, relief from postural aches and pains, easing digestion, constipation and heartburn. In late pregnancy, babies can often be encouraged into improved birthing positions. Reflexology and Homeopathy can be combined to offer optimal support to pregnant women. This can be particularly effective in preparation for childbirth.
