It’s World Reflexology Week and though I am away working this week, I wanted to share this post to illuminate and elevate Reflexology.

Reflexology was the first complementary therapy to completely relax me. After my first session I felt calm, relaxed and like I was walking on air. The Reflexologist mentioned how much my body had relaxed down between the start and end of the session. I enjoyed how I felt after each session and went back for more. I had no idea then that I would later become a Reflexologist.

Reflexes on the feet, hands, face or ears are said to represent the organs and systems of the body, like a fractal. Differing pressures and techniques encourage balance in the parasympathetic system, responsible for our rest and digest response. This is a great step in reducing stress levels and taking some time out for yourself.

Raising a glass (of water) to all this New Year’s Eve.

Being part of the human race can be awesome, it can be challenging and it comes with responsibility. If we pull together and do the small things we know we can do, we have the ability to make the world a better place.

I am going do my best to do my part in 2024 in the ways that work for me.

My first experience of Reflexology was bliss. My tickly feet were instantly reassured as they felt a firm yet gentle touch. I relaxed deeply.

The theory of Reflexology is that the practitioner stimulates different reflex points on the hands, feet, face or ears using techniques that send calming messages to the central nervous system from the peripheral nerves. The body responds to these signals by adjusting levels of tension.

This ‘me time’ had my mind feeling clearer and my mood lifting. Lifestyle suggestions encouraged me to move more during my work hours and at home, sitting as ergonomically as I could, taking adequate screen breaks, stretching, oxygenating, eating a more varied and balanced diet, drinking more water. I felt much better.

Reflexology comes under the umbrella of Complementary Therapies which are safe, non-invasive treatments that work well alongside conventional medicine. If you are under the care of a health professional, it is always advisable to check with them before booking an appointment to ensure it is safe for us to work with you.

For more information about Reflexology and the other treatments I provide, check out gentle-steps.co.uk.

Choosing a Reflexologist who belongs to a professional association lets you know that you are in safe hands.

Thanks to all who have followed along. Wishing you all a happy and healthy season. Try to take some ‘you time’, keep hydrated and look after your beautiful self.
