Reflexology

Linzi fell in love with reflexology when it helped with severe neck problems that were stress related. Reflexology helped her unwind, cope better with the demands of a busy job and hectic life and got my life back on track- all without the painkillers!

Who would benefit from reflexology?

Reflexology can improve mood, help you sleep better, optimise good health and build resilience. It is a wonderful natural therapy that reflects the aspects of your feet and hands to highlight what's going on inside your body. Each area corresponds to different organs, glands, and structures, and by gently applying pressure, a reflexologist can help your body find its healthy balance. The goal of reflexology is to treat you as a whole person, bringing harmony to both your body and mind. When you're in a state of relaxation, your body can heal, restore, and energise itself.

Reflexology is performed entirely on the feet, face, cranium or hands, so the most you’ll have to do is take off your socks and roll up your trousers! During the treatment you'll lie on your back on a reclining chair, supported by pillows and covered with a soft blanket to keep you warm.

And don’t worry - reflexology doesn't tickle! Many clients come to Linzi with ticklish feet or worried about their feet being touched, but find they can relax and enjoy the benefits of Reflexology.

Reflexology is great for everyone, and can be especially helpful for long-term conditions. Just remember, reflexology is a complementary therapy that works best alongside conventional medicine. Linzi works with clients to help them deal with long term conditions such as Parkinson’s, arthritis, ME, cancer and endometriosis.

Reflexology also helps women deal with PMS and menopause, and many clients use it to relieve stress and anxiety.

It is great as a self care treat. Many of my clients come to me with a gift voucher they have been given for a reflexology session, and then become loyal clients.

• Trained and experienced reflexologist, which includes reflexology for the menopause: a great natural support at this transition time.
• Specialises in foot reflexology that encompasses the ‘a balanced synergy of the Chinese Philosophy, including Traditional Chinese Medicine, energy diagnostics and acupressure’ to rebalance the body and mind.
• Offers cranial and facial reflexology to de-stress and relax; great for those people who don’t like their feet being touched!
