reiki infused reflexology

Tuning into your whole body with reflexology

• Reflexology is a natural and non-invasive healing treatment that uses pressure points on the feet, hands or face to balance out the whole body. It's based on the philosophy that your feet, hands and face are like mini-maps of your body, and therapists gently massage the feet, (hands or face) to ease the tension in various areas and unlock the energy channels in your body.
• Every organ and part of your body is interlinked to a corresponding area of the feet and hands. By massaging specific points, it's believed that practitioners can help to revitalize natural energy pathways, reduce blockages, and trigger the body's healing process. 
• Reflexology aims to alleviate tension, promote relaxation, improve energy levels and encourage sleep. Releasing this tension, which has built up over time, allows the energy trapped in those reflexology points to release. Once that energy is released the body can then begin to heal itself. 
• Some clients feel immediate relief, for example - shoulder tension is relaxed, while others notice changes in their symptoms a day or two later. Some feel very tired at first, while others feel an energetic boost. Tiredness comes about, as the body lets go of tension, similar to how we feel on the first few days of a holiday.
• It's also a great way to work on the physical, emotional and spiritual body using a small area. There is an instant feeling of connection, relaxation and calmness and many people start to feel grounded. 

Finding harmony with Reiki

• Reiki, on the other hand, is based on the idea that energy is all around us, and each of our cells has its own energy center. When this internal and external energy flows freely, we can enjoy a sense of peace and harmony. However, when this flow is disrupted, by stress, illness or trauma, the cell's energy is blocked, creating a negative impact on our health and wellbeing.
• Reiki practitioners work to change an individual's energy level to a more positive free-flowing state, helping to restore balance. Reiki works on a deep level of healing - it aids relaxation, assists in the body's natural processes and encourages emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. 
• Reiki healing can take us deep into a trance-like state. In this state, our body feels separate from our mind. The practitioner can then work to balance the energies of mind, body and spirit since the mind chatter of the conscious mind is asleep, a little like what happens in meditation and hypnotherapy. We return to waking consciousness feeling calm, relaxed and refreshed. Changes in physical symptoms can also be apparent for days after treatment and sometimes longer.
