Stress and how it can affect you
Is life a struggle right now?
If you're feeling overwhelmed and constantly under pressure, it’s highly likely that your own needs aren’t being met…
Stress can become a way of life and may have a negative impact on your overall health and wellbeing.
Unfortunately prolonged stress may reduce your immune function and leave you more prone to colds and other viruses. It can also lead to more serious health issues.
So it's important to tackle it!

What happens during a reflexology session?
Reflexology sessions take place in the peaceful and nurturing environment of my cosy treatment room…
You'll recline on a comfortable treatment couch, there’ll be dim lighting, soft music and you may hear birds outside the window!
A natural reflexology foot balm/cream will then be applied to your feet and lower legs. A combination of massage and gentle pressure will encourage you to switch off and unwind and may help stimulate your body’s own natural healing processes.
The sensation should be pleasantly soothing and will promote feelings of calm.
You may feel drowsy or even fall asleep for a short while. Holistic therapists take snoring as a great compliment!
Afterwards you should feel rested and recharged - and ready to face the world again!
