Women’s Health

Women receive reflexology for all sorts of reasons with many having regular sessions simply because they enjoy it and it’s the only time they truly switch off and relax.  Others may seek help to ease menstrual or hormonal problems such as irregular or painful periods, hot flushes or pre-menstrual stress.

If the hormonal system is out of balance, all aspects of life can be affected.  Insomnia, fatigue, brain fog, low libido, irritability, anxiety and low mood can follow. Reflexology can ease symptoms by helping the body regain balance.  Depending on your needs, a course of treatments may be beneficial.   Foot or facial reflexology may be recommended or a combination of both.  And it’s ok if you have a preference as both work in the same way.  After a treatment you’ll feel deeply relaxed with lowered stress levels and a reduction in the associated symptoms should follow.

A few examples of women’s health issues that may benefit from reflexology include:

• Poor sleep
• Anxiety and stress
• General aches and pains
• High or low blood pressure
• Nausea and heartburn
• Varicose veins
• Swollen feet and ankles
• Pelvic congestion
• Period problems
• Gynaecological issues
• Urinary issues – irritable bladder, stress incontinence, UTI’s
• Post surgery recovery
• Support through cancer treatment
• Poor circulation
• Emotional turmoil

Remember, reflexology does not claim to cure or diagnose but supports the body’s own natural healing processes by improving wellbeing and bringing balance.

Despite the majority of trained reflexologist being female and a large percentage of our clients being women, men, non-binary, transgender and people of all gender identities can benefit greatly and are most definitely not excluded.  Reflexology is suitable for all.
