Nourish Reflexology

23/04/2026

Adriene's videos are great, especially if you don't usually do yoga.

It is quite easy to be overstimulated these days, I am not going to sugar coat it. Overstimulation can happen when we experience too much noise, sensory overload, racing thoughts, intense emotions, or overwhelming environments. This is when our bodies tell us that our nervous system is in a heightened state. When things feel like too much, yoga teaches the body to come back to balance.

This practice is here for you when you need to be guided back to equilibrium. Together we will flow through slow, intentional movement to shift the nervous system back to a parasympathetic state, also known as “rest & digest.” Reconnect with your body, relieve tension, and find a safe place to land. I’m here for you.

👣The Secret to the "Perfect" Foot Soak 👣

As we celebrate National Feet Week, we wanted to share one of our favorite professional tips for maintaining your feet between Reflexology sessions.
A proper foot soak is a wonderful way to de-stress and support your overall wellbeing.

1. Warm water - Warm enough to increase circulation.
2. Magnesium/Epsom Salts - 1/2 -1 cup to stimulate relaxation.
3. Essential Oils - Choose the one that fits your need. We love Lavender & Peppermint!
4. Soak for 15-20 minutes - Enough for a positive effect without getting wrinkly feet!

One of the many benefits of Reflexology is that it doesn’t just care for your feet—it assists in your total body wellness. A home soak is the perfect "homework" to keep your feet responsive and your spirit balanced.

Discover the power of Reflexology. Book your session today with an RNZ Professional Reflexologist to take your footcare to the next level!

A Quick Dive Into Reflexology’s Roots

Reflexology isn’t new—it’s ancient.

Traces of footwork therapy go back thousands of years in Egypt, China, and India. Ancient texts and carvings show practitioners working on feet as a method of healing the whole body.
Modern reflexology took shape in the early 1900s when Dr. William Fitzgerald developed zone therapy, and later Eunice Ingham mapped the entire body onto the feet. Her work gave birth to the reflexology we practice today.

Old wisdom, modern relief.

👣Did you know it is National Feet Week? 👣

As Reflexologists, we spend a lot of time with feet, from learning about their structure to how they react to the specialised touch from Reflexology.

One of the many benefits of Reflexology is that a session not only helps care for your feet but can also assist in your overall wellbeing. By focusing on the feet, we are able to support the rest of the body in finding its natural balance.

Here are some fun facts about our feet.
👣There are 52 bones in your feet (26 in each foot). Thats 25% of your bones in your body!
👣Your footprint is unique just like your fingerprint.
👣Ticklish feet is a good sign, it shows that your almost 8000 nerves in your feet are working.
👣 Your feet have 250,000 sweat glands that can produce up to half a pint of sweat a day!
👣Podophobia is the fear of feet.

We can assure you there are no signs of Podophobia with our Professional Reflexologists who love feet and if you are keen to give Reflexology a try, or find out how it can help you then reach out to one of our members today!💙

Heading off for the school holidays? Don't forget to check the oil and water! Oil was bit low so we topped it up until it reached enough (do not over- fill!)
Better yet, take public transport 😆🚍

"I feel like I'm walking on clouds."☁️👣☁️
Is something many of my clients have said to me after a few regular sessions of reflexology.

These are usually the same people who have had chronic foot pain (often due to unsupportive shoes, or being on their feet all day.) Sometimes there will be significant improvement after only one session.

If you have sore feet, why not give reflexology a go? New clients welcome. I'm at Ellenbrook Life Balance every Thursday.

🤩 love the meditations by this guy.
This meditation is on a free app called Insight Timer that has thousands of free tracks with music, binaural beats, meditations, motivational talks, yin yoga, white noise, and background music.
I've been using music from Insight Timer during reflexology for years.
It helps me find my calm and get into a peaceful, focused headspace. Most of my clients have heard about it already!! 🤣🤣

Your body is fully reflected in your feet. My created image is not complete 👣

Many people are surprised when they see or hear this, your feet are not just feet, they are a reflection of your whole body and all organs, glands and body systems, including hormonal balance and lymphatic flow.

Each area relates to organs, glands and bodysystems, from your head and chest down to your digestive system and beyond.

When working on the feet, qualified reflexologists don't just work locally, we focus on the client's needs.

Through gentle or firm, precise reflexology techniques, we support the body to:
🔆relax deeply
🔆activate the 7200 nerve reflexes in each foot
🔆improve circulation
🔆release tension
🔆restore balance
🔆support overall wellbeing

It is not about forcing the body, it is about reminding it to function in a more balanced way.

Over the years, I have, and all qualified reflexologists have seen how the body responds when given the right support, often in ways people didn’t expect.

Many times clients say:
“I feel lighter”
“I feel calmer”
"My sleep improved"
"My bowel movement improved"
“I feel more like myself again”
"I became pregnant"
"The swelling eased"

The body has an incredible ability to rebalance, it is intelligent. Sometimes it simply needs the right touch.
