What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a holistic, complementary therapy that can help your body to achieve a state of balance. This balance enables you to recuperate more easily from disease, stress or bad habits in a natural way.
Reflexologists apply a specialized form of hand and finger pressure to “zones and points” that cover your feet. Even though the technique focuses on your feet, it has an effect upon your entire body, as well as your moods and thoughts!
A partial listing of conditions that reflexology can help with include:
Anxiety and Depression
Arthritis
Auto Immune Disorders
Chronic Pain
Cancer (side effects from treatments)
Diabetes
Digestive Disorders
Heart Disease
Headaches
Menopause Symptoms
Muscles aches and spasms
Neurological disorders
Obesity
Smoking addiction
Tinnitus
How Does It Work?
Several theories are still being studied, despite the fact that reflexology has been around since Ancient Egyptian times! Essentially though, reflexology is based upon historical and clinical observations that the feet “mirror” the body. By stimulating the mirror of your feet, a qualified reflexologist can open the body’s natural channels of healing.
A reflexologist is like an electrician who fixes the lights in your upstairs hallway by going into the basement and working on the fuse box and wiring system below.
Excess stress
contributes to most diseases.
Reflexology can help.
A Single Session Provides:
Profound relaxation
Reduced anxiety and reduction of pain
Increased circulation of blood, lymph and vital nerve energy throughout the entire body
Sense of being nourished and cared for
Happy, twinkling feet!
Regular Sessions Provide:
Enhanced immune system functioning
Detoxification, nourishment and revitalization of all body systems, thus supporting beauty and health maintenance, stress-management, weight loss, and other wellness goals
Complementary support
for medical treatments, enabling your body and spirit to better tolerate surgeries and prescribed medications
A holistic, gentle pathway for your body
to “remember” how to feel well again, and to find it’s own natural rhythm of healing.
What is a session like?
It’s easy. It feels wonderful! It’s also gentle enough for children and elderly clients.
The first time you visit, you will be asked to fill out a brief form to help Katherine understand your goals and how reflexology can help you achieve them. After that, you get to lie back in a reclining chair, while your feet are relaxed, soothed, and “reflexed.”
During the sessions, you may keep your eyes open or closed as you wish. Many people fall asleep; others like to talk and ask questions.
Before you leave, Katherine may offer some ideas to help you achieve your goals based upon what you and your feet have told her.
How Much Does It Cost?
Reflexology Sessions are $45.
No extra charge for intake assessment.
These prices do not include additional services that may be offered at the time of your visit.
