Reflexology<\/h1>\n<\/header>\n
\n

<\/h1>\n

Reflexology is a specific pressure technique applied to the <\/span>feet. Performed in a semi-reclined position \u2013 only shoes and socks need to be removed. Reflexology begins with a massage to warm up and relax the feet and ankles. Then the Therapist works around the feet and ankles using her thumbs and fingers. Reflexology ends with a soothing foot massage, leaving feet feeling warm, relaxed and soft.<\/p>\n

Reflexology dates back to ancient civilisations and is based on the principles that the organs, glands and systems of the body are reflected in miniature on the feet and that energy flows through the body in 10 longitudinal zones. Specific pressure techniques are applied to the feet, which can help initiate and accelerate balance in the corresponding area of the body. There are over 7000 nerve endings around the feet and ankles and reflexology aims to stimulate as many of these as possible.<\/p>\n

Reflexology can bring about the same sensations of relaxation as a full body massage.<\/p>\n

Though no Therapist can promise specific results, over the years Hayley\u2019s Clients have reported relief of symptoms of many common conditions and ailments after receiving reflexology.<\/p>\n

Some clients prefer to lay on their front fully reclined and Reflexology can be done\u00a0this way too (Reflex Therapy) and may include work on the backs of the legs through the blanket. \u00a0Hayley can use her forearm here to work the feet and ankles as well as work some traditional reflexology points on the feet and a relaxing foot massage concludes the therapy.<\/p>\n

After Reflexology, Clients often say their feet feel very \u2018opened up\u2019 and \u2018released\u2019 and they have a feeling of \u2018walking on air\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/reflexology2-e1683292254297.jpg” title_text=”reflexology2″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/reflexology1-e1683292237168.jpg” title_text=”reflexology1″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_testimonial author=”Sara” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” author_text_align=”center” custom_padding=”|1%||1%|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”|1%||1%|false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|1%||1%|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]\n

I’m absolutely astounded by the massive improvement. The difference is incredible.

Some feedback for you from your reflexology therapy . . .
I\u2019m still seeing vast improvement to my levels of patience, and reasonableness to situations that would have left me incandescent with rage just a few months ago. There has been further improvement following the second session. It has improved my\u00a0life\u00a0xx<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_testimonial][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

\u201cI recently went to Hayley because I had been suffering from nasal congestion and crackling in my ears as a result of this. I decided to have ear candling carried out as I kept giving so many off the shelf remedies a go. It was a very relaxing experience and could feel the benefits as soon as my face was massaged at the same time. My head definitely felt clearer as a result of this treatment and won\u2019t hesitate to have it done again. I have never gone for this sort treatment before and now I have had\u00a0reflexology<\/b>\u00a0and a rejuvenating face massage carried out too. Both these treatments had the most amazing relaxing effect \u2013 I felt de-stressed and an immense sense of wellbeing. Highly recommended indeed!!!!\u201d<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

\u201cReflexology<\/b>\u00a0really helps me sleep and I wake feeling energised, which is very unusual for me as I have rheumatoid arthritis. It also helps with my pain relief and mobility too.\u201d<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

\u201cReflexology\u00a0<\/b>enabled me to cope with some of the anxieties associated with medical treatment undertaken. I feel balanced, calm and serene.\u201d<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

\u201cI had a lot of pain in my toes. After the first\u00a0reflexology<\/b>\u00a0treatment my toes moved better than they had in ages. The next day, the pain just went in my feet and they felt fantastic. I also felt revitalised.\u201d<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

\u201cI enjoy a regular\u00a0reflexology<\/b>\u00a0and recently tried the\u00a0Reflex<\/b>\u00a0Treatment too. The benefits were 2 fold \u2013 it felt like I\u2019d had a massage as well as reflexology. My body felt really relaxed and opened up before the feet were even touched. I had a lovely feeling of floating away. Total relaxation!\u201d<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>

\u201cI came for my first\u00a0reflexology<\/b>\u00a0session full of scepticism, although a friend had recommended it to me. I could not believe that it could do any 'real good'. However, after my first session I was just so wonderfully relaxed. I slept really well for the first time in a long time, and felt just a sense of general well-being that I had not felt before. I still don't know how it works; I just know that it does for me.\u201d<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>
