Relieving discomfort from Menstruation & Pregnancy.
During pregnancy, reflexology has been shown to be a great help at easing the nasty niggles that mums-to-be suffer. It’s believed and in my experience to help balance the hormonal and emotional rollercoaster that pregnancy creates and can ease anxiety symptoms. Alongside the emotional benefits, it can also help with many of the physical effects of pregnancy, such as morning sickness, digestive problems, heartburn, anaemia and general aches and pains.
New arrivals can also benefit from reflexology. Short, gentle sessions can help to soothe and settle upset tots. Softly stroking the feet helps to relax them and gentle pressure while breastfeeding can help the baby to digest effectively, reducing hiccups and tummy niggles
Fertility Reflexology aims to rebalance the body’s systems by applying focused pressure on specific points or reflexes on the feet which refer or map to specific organs or structures in the body. Working these reflexes, combined with the deep relaxation this treatment induces, helps to bring about a powerful healing effect on the physical and non-physical. Reflexology is extremely helpful during your journey to conception for both partners due to its powerful impact on stress response, reproductive health and hormonal issues.
As with many other natural therapies, the benefits of reflexology is to promote wholeness, balance and relaxation. There can be no guaranteed results with these forms of treatment but experiences of many have found it to be extremely beneficial.

I offer CUPPING THERAPY. The suction and negative pressure provided by cupping can loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and sedate the nervous system (which makes it an excellent treatment for high blood pressure). I use Cupping to relieve back and neck pains, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism, and even cellulite and for many DIGESTIVE ISSUES such as constipation /bloating
Deep abdominal Massage; abdominal massages to the stomach / colon area involves circular motions performed clockwise to improve blood circulation in the body. This blood flow in return does help improve digestion and preventing constipation. Stimulating the digestive system with gentle pressure is how stomach massages treat constipation. Not only does it loosen the muscles, but it also softens the intestines and enzymes and body fluids to soften the waste to ensure healthy bowel movement . I use the DRY CUPPING also on this area.
I offer IPL Luminette Laser therapy since 2006.
