Maria Matthews Therapies

Details

Hello my name is Maria. I am qualified to Centralia's Reflexology Mastership; currently the highest qualification & I am a member of Professional Reflexology. I have a distinction in Anatomy & Physiology level 3 & am a Reiki practitioner level 3 mastership.

I decided to train to become a practitioner after receiving both treatments; I didn't necessarily understand how they worked at the time but thought wow, this really has helped me. The rest, as they say is history & I am constantly amazed at the human body & it's capacity to heal itself.

Reflexology techniques & theories have been noted for thousands of years. A practitioner will apply gentle pressure with their thumb or fingers. This is usually preformed on their client's feet but can also be applied to the client's hands if preferred. The basic principal follows that specific points on the feet & hands, reflect or relate to specific points on the body. By applying massage or pressure to these points it encourages relaxation & better circulation. Therefore allowing better oxygen & nutrient flow to the cells & more efficient release of toxins. Both therapies can assist with many different conditions e.g. sleeping patterns, IBS, allergies, muscle & joint pain, & fertility, to name but a few. I am honoured to work with a diverse client base including individuals with Lupus, MND, ME, MS, Autism, plus children & the elderly. As a therapist I cannot cure a condition but can encourage your body to be more in balance & to repair itself where needed. Many clients find a treatment gives them precious time to unwind, stop & relax; with them having renewed energy afterwards. Either therapy session lasts approximately 45-60 mins but can be tailor made to suit the individual. My initial treatment cost is £40 & reduced to £30 thereafter. (Weekly treatment & children discount rates are available).

I am now charging a £5 mobile booking fee; I try to keep my appointments as affordable as possible & do not charge for my traveling time.
