SLEEP - the healing state.

Our sleep is heavily connected to our endocrine system, especially the hormones melatonin, cortisol, growth hormone and leptin and ghrelin.

Let’s look at melatonin first:-
(Not to be confused with melanin!)

🌷 secreted by the pineal gland (in the brain) in response to darkness
🌷 regulates your circadian rhythm - so you know when to sleep and when to wake up

Light exposure especially blue, short-wave light suppresses melatonin and delays sleep.

Blue, short/wave light comes primarily from sunlight but can also be emitted from tech screens and LED lights.

So, those that struggle to sleep need to stay off tech before bed and avoid bright light indoors.

This could be hard though as most screen-scroll in the evenings, catching up on work emails, appointment bookings and doing social ads.

But it may be worth a mention if your client is struggling with sleep.

✨ NEW Beta Workshop: Mian Shenti ✨
Massage to support your clients’ menopause journey.
Menopause can show up as anxiety, poor sleep, brain fog, fluid retention and a deep sense of overwhelm, and many therapists want to help, but don’t always feel confident how.

Mian Shenti is a complete, head-to-toe ritual combining:
• Crystal & chakra work
• Vagus nerve pathway massage
• Manual lymphatic drainage
• Meridian Gua Sha
• Slow, integrative effleurage
All woven into a calming, repeatable sequence that respects scope of practice and safety.

We’re running this as a beta testing workshop
💷 Usual price £295 → Beta price £195
Perfect for qualified therapists who want to support menopausal clients with confidence, clarity and compassionate touch.
Spaces are limited.
👉 Book your place - message us directly or WhatsApp 07572987860

Because you don’t need more techniques — you need the right structure ✨
All woven into a calming, repeatable sequence that respects the scope of practice and safety.

SLEEP - the healing state.

Sleep goes in 4 cycles from light to deep throughout the night.
Stage 1 - light sleep - transition from wakefulness - reduced muscle activity, heart rate slows and you often feel like you’re ‘falling’
Stage 2 - light-medium sleep - body relaxes, hr slows, temperature drops
Stage 3 - deep sleep - essential for the body’s PHYSICAL REPAIR, immunity and memory. Muscles completely relax, breathing and hr at their lowest
REM - brain is highly active, body is paralysed, vivid life-like dreams, helps with processing stressful memories (is this where the saying ‘I’ll sleep on it’ comes from?)

Stage 3 sleep is strongly associated with the body’s ability to internally repair whereas REM sleep supports memory consolidation and regulates emotions.

Disruptions to these cycles reduces their restorative benefits. Whether through alcohol, stress or sleep disturbances.

Sleep is so important - it’s the healing state

This month’s focus is all about sleep. We will delve deeper into what is actually happening to our bodies during our shuteye.

Sleep is the healing state - where we repair and process the day.

If sleep is disrupted it has far-reaching repercussions for our wellbeing.

Stay tuned - there’s a blog incoming!

And, as sleep improvement is one thing we can say about reflexology without getting into trouble it’s great marketable content!
