Reflexology for Postpartum Recovery 👣
Relaxation & Reduced Stress 🛀
Reflexology can help encourage the body to shift from “fight or flight” to “rest and digest” through stimulating the nervous systems reflex points. This will help ease tension and promote an overall sense of calm.
Hormonal Balance ⚖️
Specific points on the feet correspond to the endocrine system, such as the pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, and ovaries.
By stimulating these areas, reflexology can encourage balance between the glands, helping to regulate hormone production and release.
Circulation & Healing 🧬
Reflexology boosts blood circulation which can help deliver oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, easing tension and encouraging tissue repair.
Reflexology Lymphatic Drainage (RLD), focuses on stimulating reflex points associated with the lymphatic system. This can improve the flow of lymphatic fluid, helping to remove toxins and reduce inflammation and swelling.
Energy & Sleep 😴
Reflexology can help regulate hormones that affect sleep, such as melatonin (which controls your sleep-wake cycle) and serotonin (which helps promote relaxation and good mood).
