Refloxology is a pressure technique generally applied to the feet. The treatment is based on the premise that points on the feet correspond to areas in the body and that by exerting small, precise pressures on the relevant points, stress and tension maybe relieved and the body re-balanced.
Reflexology can help to alleviate numerous problems from sleep patterns to period problems. It engenders a deep relaxation, and can encourage a speedier recovery from injury or illness.
The treatment lasts approximately an hour.
