Breastfeeding is a beautiful but often demanding journey - physically, hormonally, and emotionally.

For new mothers, reflexology can offer an added layer of comfort and relaxation during the postpartum period, complementing breastfeeding supports and giving space for much-needed self-care. 💜

This , let’s celebrate the bond between mother and baby, and remind every mum that support and nurture are just as important for her as for her little one.

Reflexology: supporting conception and pregnancy naturally

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 doesn’t begin in the womb alone, it begins with balance in the nervous system, hormones, circulation and emotional wellbeing.

Reflexology gently supports the body as it prepares for conception by:
🔆 calming the nervous system
🔆 supporting hormonal balance and communication
🔆 improving circulation to the reproductive organs
🔆 easing stress, which can quietly interfere with fertility

When the body feels safe, supported and balanced, it can focus on what truly matters.

𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘆, once it begins, reflexology continues to offer beautiful support.
Treatments are adapted to be gentle and nurturing, helping to:
🔆 ease some discomforts
🔆 ease morning sickness
🔆 support changing hormones
🔆 ease tension and fatigue
🔆 encourage better sleep
🔆 support digestion and circulation
🔆 help the nervous system adapt to the many changes taking place

Reflexology during pregnancy supports the body’s incredible intelligence as it grows and nurtures new life. I have even seen a wonderful change with two women who had p***c symphysis, the pain disappeared only after one or two sessions 🙏

Whether preparing to conceive or already pregnant, reflexology offers calmness, connection and trust in the body’s natural wisdom.

Did you know Reflexology can help with pain relief?

Pain is a complex experience influenced not only by physical factors, but also by the nervous system, stress levels, and emotional wellbeing. When the body is under prolonged stress, the nervous system can remain in a heightened state, which may increase muscle tension and amplify the perception of pain.

Reflexology is a complementary therapy that works by encouraging deep relaxation and supporting the nervous system. By helping the body shift out of a stress response, reflexology may assist in easing muscle tension and supporting the body’s natural pain-modulation processes. This relaxation response can influence how pain signals are perceived and processed.

Reflexology may also support circulation, helping to improve the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues while assisting with the removal of metabolic waste products. This can be particularly beneficial for areas of ongoing tension or discomfort.

While reflexology does not diagnose or treat medical conditions, it may be used alongside conventional care as part of a holistic approach to pain management. By supporting relaxation, circulation, and nervous system balance, reflexology can help improve comfort levels, body awareness, and overall wellbeing over time.

There’s more to a Facial Massage than looking good!!

A groundbreaking discovery in brain health has revealed that facial lymphatic vessels play a crucial role in draining toxins from the brain. When massaged, these vessels help clear out waste, which is vital for the prevention of neurological diseases like Alzheimer's. Scientists are excited about the possibility of using this technique as a non-invasive treatment for brain health.

By targeting these facial lymphatic pathways, researchers believe they could slow down the progression of diseases that impact memory and cognition. Early intervention with this method may provide an effective and natural way to protect against diseases that lead to dementia.

This discovery also emphasizes the importance of regular facial massages, not just for relaxation, but for overall brain wellness. It’s a promising avenue for future treatments and something that could change the way we approach neurodegenerative diseases. 💆‍♂️🧠

Reflexology is often misunderstood as simply a way to relax, but trained reflexologists work with detailed reflex maps to support the nervous system and whole-body balance.

Through observation, assessment and an understanding of anatomy and physiology, reflexology supports the body’s ability to move out of stress and into regulation, where rest, repair and healing can take place.

Reflexology- Helping your body to feel safe.

anastasisreflexology.com

Many people arrive for reflexology feeling overstimulated, tired, or disconnected. Regulation is about helping the nervous system move out of constant alert and into a calmer state.

Reflexology supports this gently through rhythm, touch, and stillness. When the body feels safer, everything else can soften too.

Regulation isn’t dramatic. It’s quiet, steady, and deeply valuable.

Reflexology doesn’t just feel relaxing. It supports your nervous system to shift from stress and tension into calm, balance and repair.
By working specific reflex points on the feet, reflexology helps the body move out of fight-or-flight and into a state where healing, digestion and sleep can happen more easily.

This is why people often leave a session feeling lighter, calmer and more grounded.

Are you in the ‘fight or flight’ mode or the ‘rest and digest’ mode?

Unfortunately many people spend a lot of their life in the ‘fight or flight’ mode, or sympathetic dominance. While we need this ‘mode’ at times, it can be damaging if we can’t get out of it.

See which signs connect with you-

Signs of sympathetic dominance (fight/flight)
• Shallow or chest breathing
• Racing thoughts, difficulty relaxing
• Tight jaw, shoulders, or stomach
• Cold hands or feet
• Digestive issues (bloating, constipation)
• Feeling “wired but tired”
• Difficulty sleeping despite exhaustion

⸻

Signs of parasympathetic activation (rest/digest)
• Slow, deep belly breathing
• Warm hands and feet
• Feeling calm or grounded
• Hunger cues return
• Improved digestion
• Natural sighing or yawning
• Feeling emotionally safe or connected

Most people with chronic stress spend too much time in sympathetic mode.

Reflexology has been shown to reduce the ‘fight or flight’ mode and help your body and mind come out of it to truly relax and reset.

If you’d like more information or would like to make an appointment please feel free to message me.
