Reflexology 1hr - £40
An extremely relaxing treatment.
A reflexology treatment re-balances the energy in the body, relaxing the client and increasing the body's ability to heal itself. The gentle but firm finger and thumb pressures stimulate the nerve-endings in the feet to send healing energy through the ten zones which run from each toe to the brain. Significant results can be achieved with reflexology for many conditions, particularly those which are stress-related, digestive disorders, migraine, sinusitis, asthma, back problems and hormonal imbalance.What are the benefits?
