What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a system of massage used to relieve stress and treat illness. The theory behind reflexology is that the reflex points on the feet, hands, and head  are linked to every part of the body.

Reflexology is more than just a good foot massage, reflexology supports you to deeply relax and release physical and emotional stress. It brings about balance, ease and healing. For either preventative care or in response to physical or emotional distress, reflexology has been observed to create physical changes that can bring about balance, ease and healing.​

Reflexology: Improves circulation, calms the nervous system, boosts the lymphatics, improves energy levels, is beneficial for many chronic health conditions – asthma, arthritis, IBS, hormones, pain and stress management and complements medical treatments.

When the body is in a state of ‘imbalance’ due to illness or injury, disease or stress then energy pathways can be blocked, preventing the body from functioning effectively. The use of specifice pressure movements on the reflex points, allows the whole body to relax and de-stress, restoring and maintaining the body’s natural equilibrium and encouraging healing.

The experience of reflexology is unique to each person.

How does  Reflexology work?

The sensitive, trained hands of the reflexologist can detect tiny deposits in the soft tissues and imbalances from touching the feet, hands or ears. Reflexology promotes self healing the body by better functioning and improving lymphatic drainage and  blood circulation. Reflexology stimulates the nerve pathways, induces muscle relaxation, and helps the body to balance itself.

Reflexology treats the whole person, not just the symptoms of particular problems. 

Reflexology is useful for: enhancing the relaxation response, reducing stress or tension, reducing pain, improving lymphatic drainage and blood circulation, promoting the release of toxins, and balancing the body / mind.

How long will a Reflexology session last?

Reflexology sessions are usually for 30 - 60 minutes duration. During a session you may experience deep relaxation, the experience of expansion as you let go, tingling, twitching, warmth in the area of the body being worked on.

Salt lamps are natural, beautiful air ionizers that improve the quality of the air and can be used in homes, offices and other indoor areas. They emit negative ions into the air. They do not generate negative ions themselves but attract moisture through the humidity in the air.  This process is called, hygroscopic, which is a natural reaction of humidity (water in the air) to sodium chloride. If you have a salt lamp that you do not turn on, you may be surprised to see a pool of water near the base, as the water grounds itself. Or the lamp may appear to be wet.

By using a heat source, lamps can accelerate evaporation which in turn produces negative ions. Negative ions are beneficial to our health.

Other Uses 

Salt lamps have a gentle glow and are a lovely light source for healing rooms, massage, meditation, reiki or yoga centres. The light creates a soothing visual scene that is very calming. In a world surrounded by electrical energy something that can lesson positive ions is good for our health.

Health Benefits

Positive ions are often created by electronic devices like computers, TVs, microwaves, vacuum cleaners and can often aggravate problems like allergies, stress and sleeping. Negative ions can neutralize positive ions (they bond together) and help cleanse the air.

Airborne mold, bacteria, and allergens often carry a positive charge and these can be neutralized by negative ions.

A healthier, cleaner environment can be created using salt lamps.
