Reflexology

Reflexology works along holistic principles aiming to treat the person as a whole-
mind, body and spirit rather than a diagnosis or set of symptoms. For instance, a physical illness can be emotionally draining, or stress can affect your body as well as the mind.

Reflexology uses a precise technique to stimulates specific reflex (or pressure points) on the hands and feet which correspond to different parts of the body. It is used to reduce stress and improve well-being.

Reflexology is suitable for all ages, from new-born to those receiving end of life care. It is safe and non-intrusive complementary therapy. However, Reflexology is not recommended to pregnant women in the first 12 weeks.
