Is reflexology safe during pregnancy?

Helen and Deb are fully trained in maternity fertility, so you are in safe hands. 

Yes, Deb and Helen are fully trained in a Gentle Touch method of reflexology specially designed for babies and children. 

As you will be laying on the treatment couch, we suggest you wear comfortable clothing. If you are having foot reflexology, only your feet and ankles will be exposed. Access up to and including knees for AromaTherapy and access to décolleté for ZFL or cupping.  

First of all we have a chat, if this is your first appointment the discussion will last a little longer as it will include a history of any medical, physical and or emotional problems you may have. 

If you are having foot reflexology you will remove any footwear and socks. When ready you will lie face up on the treatment couch. If needed you will be covered with a small blanket, in summer we will use a light blanket or sheet to cover you up and in the winter a heavier blanket will be used and in addition the couch is heated to make you feel cosy and warm. 

If having foot reflexology your feet will be wiped over and the reflexology treatment will start. If you are having any of the facial reflexology treatments you we will place a small towel around your head to protect your hair and one on your decolletage. 

As reflexology is a non invasive therapy you will feel relaxed during the treatment and may fall asleep, which is perfectly normal. 

After the treatment we will have a quick chat about the treatment, what you felt, what the reflexologist felt and you may be given some homework . We will discuss your next treatment and book in your next appointment.

This can vary depending on your aliment/ condition, how long you have had it and what you hope to achieve. After each treatment this will be discussed and we will make recommendations. After the first treatment you may be advised that weekly treatments will be best for you and then fortnightly.. monthly and so on.

The basic answer to this is no. We do not use a hard pressure, therefore it wont hurt. You may find some areas are more tender than others and this can reflect an imbalance. The pressure and flow that we use also doesn’t lead to a feeling of being tickled.  

You can pay with cash or card.
