What to expect...
The practitioner will begin by taking details of the client's medical history and lifestyle. The patient will be seated comfortably in a recliner chair and asked to remove shoes and socks. Before commencing the session, the practitioner will initially examine the feet. All areas on both feet will be worked on. Areas corresponding to parts of the body which are out of balance may feel tender when massaged. The degree of tenderness will indicate the degree of imbalance. The sensitivity of the feet varies from person to person and the trained practitioner will understand the correct pressure to apply. The application and effect of the therapy are unique to each person. The full session will last between 45-60 minutes and at the end the feet should feel warm and the patient relaxed. Each person is unique and their response to ill health and the session will vary accordingly.
The number of sessions required will vary according to the nature of your conditions/state of health, your sensitivity to the treatment and any lifestyle changes you make. When starting reflexology, between three and six sessions, at weekly intervals, are usually advised, to detox and eliminate waste from the body allowing the healing phase to start. Further appointments would be recommended as necessary. Some clients book a regular weekly or monthly 'top up' sessions as a preventative measure, to keep their body systems balanced and in good working order. Some clients have referred to it as a holistic MOT!
How will I feel during and after the session?
.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
During a session or soon after you may have the sensation of being cold; this can happen when the body lowers the core temperature as you relax - the same as when you go to bed at night. Or you may experience perspiration as your body warms up, especially following a session when you have to drive back to work or go home.
Everybody responds uniquely to a Reflexology session - some may feel tired after their session, others may feel energized. It is not uncommon to go through several stages of emotions and body sensations during a session and over the next few days.
Try to drink plenty of water to help the body to flush out unwanted toxins.
If you are concerned at any stage, do not hesitate to contact me.
