Zara Irvine
Reflexology

Reflexology is a unique science that deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and the hands, which correspond to all the glands, organs and parts of the body. Reflexology can be used to restore balance to glands, it restores mental alertness and reduces tension enabling a calmer, clearer mind. Reflexology has shown to be particularly helpful for people suffering with insomnia, depression, fatigue, hip, back and neck pain, stress related illness, headaches, hormonal imbalances, digestive problems and as a general 'pick me up' when our reserves are low. Most people would agree it is very relaxing, it is as much a therapeutic aid as a preventative healthcare tool. Following injury or illness our body forms blockages, reflexology works on energy pathways to free any blockages that prevent us from recovering, allowing our body it's natural self-healing machanism to set to work. A course of 6 treatments over a 4 to 6 week period is usually recommended for maximum benefit, for maintenance of health and well being fewer treatments are also beneficial.
