What Happens in a Reflexology Treatment?

During the first consultation a brief medical history will be taken.

Treatment follows with the use of cream to aid the movement of the therapist’s thumbs, fingers and knuckles over all areas of the feet. As the therapist’s hands pass over certain areas, a sharp discomfort may be felt, in others merely a firm pressure. During and following a reflexology session, patients usually experience a feeling of deep relaxation and well-being.

The number of treatments will vary; in treating a clinical condition three weekly sessions are advised followed by subsequent treatments with increasing intervals between them. For generally maintaining good health and for relaxation, treatments at 4-weekly intervals are usually sufficient.
