Most people feel deeply grounded, relaxed, and calm. Occasionally, as your body releases stored tension and toxins, you might experience mild 'cleansing' responses over the next 24 - 48 hours, such as feeling thirsty, slightly tired, or needing to pass urine more frequently. Drinking plenty of water after your treatment helps support this natural flush.

Even a single session provides deep relaxation and stress relief. However, if you are working through long-term issues like chronic tension, digestive trouble, or ongoing stress, a series of weekly or fortnightly sessions (typically 4–6) works best to create lasting balance. Afterward, many clients choose monthly maintenance sessions.

Reflexology does not take the place of mainstream medicine; it is a complementary health treatment. A reflexologist will never advise change in their clients' medication and will when necessary refer their client onto or back to their medical doctor. Reflexologists cannot diagnose through the feet, prescribe anything, even session amounts and duration. This is a holistic therapy that will help relieve tension in the body.

Reflexology is safe for almost everyone, but there are a few exceptions (called contraindications). We will avoid treatment or adapt our approach if you currently have:

• An active deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or blood clot.

• Contagious skin conditions or severe fungal infections on the feet.

• Acute foot injuries or fractures.

• Note on Pregnancy: Reflexology is wonderfully supportive during pregnancy, though we adjust specific techniques depending on your trimester. Please check with your medical doctor first.
