REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology is an established, non-invasive complementary therapy
It is less inhibiting than some touch therapies - you only have to take off your footwear!
Promoting deep relaxation and a sense of wellbeing, reflexology eases tension, aids sleep and supports us to move from the 'stress response' to the 'relaxation response'
Sessions provide time in a safe space, to be listened to or to switch off and rest.
"I have had reflexology from Jane for a number of weeks for shoulder and hip pain and general wellbeing. I now have no
shoulder pain and my hip pain is easing considerably. As for the wellbeing, it certainly eases the soul."
Bren
Reflexology is based on the principle that all organs, structures and systems of the body have a corresponding reflex point on the hands and feet. Working these reflexes properly may assist wellbeing in a safe and natural way, reducing everyday stresses and strains and improving circulation, thereby revitalising energy levels, optimising good health and building resilience.
I have considerable experience working with:
-
Children and young people
-
Pain management, mobilisation and the treatment of pain
-
Stress related conditions, fatigue, anxiety and depression
-
Cancer care and reflexology as a supportive and palliative therapy
-
Women’s Health
I am trained in a variety of reflexology methods and techniques, which allows me to provide a treatment session uniquely suited to the specific needs of each client. I have also trained in foot mobilisation reflexology which focuses on the flexibility and structure of the foot and looks at how important our foot health is for happy knees, hips and backs.

Vertical Reflex Therapy - VRT
Vertical Reflexology Techniques (VRT) are a unique method of weight-bearing reflexology which is briefly applied to the top of the feet and hands. Clients are treated in a seated, reclining or standing position.
It was discovered and developed by Lynne Booth and her accredited classes have been taught internationally. VRT has received an award from the Institute of Complementary and Natural Medicine (ICNM) for its 'Outstanding Contribution to Complementary Medicine'.

Advanced Reflexology Techniques - ART
The ART techniques are more concentrated and generally deeper than the more orthodox reflexology techniques. They form a therapeutically effective clinical method of reflexology and can be used for a much more specific treatment.
