Latest feedback
Hi Francois,
I thought i would let you know the good news since the prime reason i was having treatment with you was unexplained infertility.
Well, after a frozen embryo transfer last year after IVF, we are expecting a healthy little boy in a couple of months.. A much anticipated little baby!
thanks for your help, i am convinced the treatment I had eventually set the scene and made the circumstances right. Above all you encouraged me to always never question that the baby would come one day.: P... (Woodford)
Update:
P...is now the proud mother of a baby boy.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the treatment feel like?
A word of reassurance should be given to people who feel embarrassed about the state of their feet. Of course it is preferable for you and the reflexologist if your feet are clean at the time of the treatment although washing facilities are available at the clinic and your therapist will also use antiseptic wipes and foot powder to prepare your feet for the session.
There is nothing you should feel awkward about -skin conditions on the feet, deformities or whatever- remember your therapist is used to seeing feet of all kinds.
The pressure is firm enough for the client not to feel ticklish -another common worry among first time patients- so relax, don't be shy about your feet and give them the attention they deserve.

Will it hurt?
Reflexology is a gentle technique and your therapist will make sure at all times that you are well within the pain threshold. Certain points may be painful if there is an imbalance there, but the pain will never last for long and it will be an indication that an underlying problem is being released.
On the whole the techniques used by your reflexologist usually feel extremely pleasant and relaxing. In fact, many patients fall asleep or experience a state of deep relaxation.

How many treatments will I need?
This depends on several factors and your therapist will advise you as it varies for each individual, but in most cases an initial three sessions at weekly intervals is advisable. There are however certain reflexes which can be treated as often as you wish -perhaps by yourself at home- please refer to the
"about me" section.

Should I talk to the reflexologist during a session?
This is entirely up to you. If you feel like talking, feel free to do so -it can be beneficial to the healing process. At times however you will be feeling so relaxed that you may just find yourself drifting into sleep. Your therapist may encourage you to tell him if a particular point is tender or sensitive as this may help him to gain further insight as to what is happening.

Can I combine reflexology with other complementary therapies?
Such a combination is usually perfectly safe. It is advisable to inform all therapists who are giving you treatments.

Can Reflexology be used as a preventive therapy?
Having experienced the benefits of a course of reflexology, many patients return for a top up at regular intervals. This maintains the correct energy flow throughout the body.

Can reflexology help with pain control?
Yes. Pain control can be one of the most beneficial result of reflexology treatments. The therapist will apply pressure to certain reflex areas which will stimulate the brain into releasing endorphins-the body's own pain killer.

Who can benefit from reflexology?
Reflexology is suitable for all ages and may bring relief from a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. Again, your reflexologist will adjust the length of the session and the pressure applied according to the age and physical condition of the patient.
