Reflexology sessions last from 40 minutes to an hour. The client sits or lies in a reclining chair or treatment bed placing the feet conveniently for our reflexologist's work. The reflexologist use pressure, stretch and movement to work through the foot methodically.
Our technique is applied to the whole foot or hand; you should sit back, relax and enjoy your reflexology treatment. If you wish you may ask an on-going assessment of stress cues of the feet; the location of reflex areas of the feet or education in how to alleviate stress in your life. Ask about research relevant to your health concern.
Expect our reflexologist’s application of technique to be within your comfort zone- not too heavy and not too light but at a level within your personal preference and you should communicate this preference to the reflexologist.
Expect technique application to be "dry," without the use of oil, cream or lotion. Use of these emollients constitutes a foot massage and not a reflexology session.
You should feel relaxed at the end of a session. How long that relaxation lasts is a good indicator of the effectiveness of the session. Make note of this and tell your reflexologist your response to the session at the next session. This can be helpful information to and valuable feedback to the Reflexology Clinic.
Do not rely on a reflexologist for medical help.
The reflexologist is limited to complementing medicine not replacing it. |
