Reflexology in York

As a qualified and experienced Reflexologist, I provide Reflexology treatment in Gillygate, York and from my practice in Thorganby, York UK.

What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is an ancient healing art going back thousands of years. There is evidence to show that therapeutic foot massage has been practised by a variety of cultures. Reflexology uses reflexes on the feet or hands to treat the body’s organs, structures and functions. By applying pressure to these reflexes in a precise and systematic way it is possible for a reflexologist to encourage a subtle healing effect within the body.

The benefits of Reflexology are physical, mental and emotional as it treats the whole person, not just the symptoms of the disease. Vertical Reflexology, which I practise alongside Reflexology, involves the recipient standing up while the top of their foot is worked. It is thought this accesses the reflexes at a deeper level.

What conditions can Reflexology help?

Migraine, sinus problems, hormonal imbalance, back problems, digestive complaints, chest conditions, circulatory conditions, urinary problems, tension and stress to name but a few.

What does Reflexology treatment involve?

On your first visit a detailed medical history will be taken. This is entirely confidential and no details are stored on a computer. I will then begin to work on your feet, noting any problem areas. I will often start with a few minutes of Vertical Reflexology as this combined with conventional reflexology can enhance the whole treatment. Don’t worry if your feet are ticklish as reflexology uses firm pressure so doesn’t tickle. The session will relax you while stimulating the body’s own healing.

How long will each Reflexology treatment take?

A session lasts about 50 minutes with an additional 15 minutes consultation during the first session.

How many session will I need?

We usually advise a course of 6 treatments on a weekly basis as reflexology is cumulative. This can vary according to the person, their condition and lifestyle.

How much will each Reflexology session cost?

A Reflexology session costs £30.
