Reflexology
If you have never tried Reflexology, it's time to experience the benefits it has to offer with our amazing Certified Reflexologist, Laura Reeds.
Reflexology is a therapeutic natural healing method of relieving pain without medication by stimulating predefined pressure points on the head, hands, and feet. Stimulating reflexes in these areas are reputed to connect via the nervous system and affect the organs, tissues, and glands of the body. Reflexology assists the body in regaining it's state of harmony & balance.
Experiences with reflexology sessions vary from a general feeling of relaxation, to a sense of "lightness" or tingling in the body, as well as feelings of warmth, a sense of "opening," or "energy moving" from the practitioner's pressure to the specific body area or organ.
