Stress and how it can affect you
Does life seem like a struggle right now?
Perhaps you're feeling overwhelmed and constantly under pressure…
Being stressed can often become a way of life and this may negatively impact your overall wellbeing.
Prolonged stress reduces immunity, so you may be more prone to colds/coughs and other viruses. And when stress is unresolved, it may lead to more serious long-term health issues.
So now’s the time 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 that as a great compliment!
Afterwards you should feel rested and recharged - and ready to face the world again.
