Everything You Need to Know
What is reflexology?
Reflexology is a gentle, natural therapy that applies targeted pressure to specific points on your feet, hands, or ears. These points are linked to different parts of the body and can help reduce stress, improve sleep, support fertility, and promote overall wellbeing.
What can reflexology help with?
Reflexology can support a range of issues, including:
✔ How to manage stress
✔ How to get better sleep
✔ Anxiety relief
✔ Fertility support
✔ Mental wellbeing
✔ General relaxation and balance
It’s not a medical treatment, but many people find it helps them feel more relaxed, energised, and in control of their health.
Does reflexology hurt?
No, reflexology should never be painful. Some areas might feel slightly tender if there’s an imbalance, but overall, it’s a deeply relaxing experience.
How many sessions will I need?
This depends on your goals. Some people feel the benefits after just one session, while others book regular treatments for ongoing support. We can discuss what’s best for you during your first session.
Is reflexology safe during pregnancy?
Yes, reflexology is a safe and natural therapy for pregnancy. It can help with stress, sleep issues, hormonal changes, and general relaxation. However, if you’re in the first trimester, it’s always best to check with your midwife or GP first.
What should I expect in my first reflexology session?
Your first session will include:
A short consultation to discuss your health and goals.
A relaxing foot reflexology treatment tailored to your needs.
Time to unwind and experience the benefits of reflexology.

(Yew Tree Farm offers a calm, relaxing setting with free onsite parking.)
Mobile appointments available in Lymm, Bowdon, Altrincham & Knutsford – Tuesday & Thursday evenings (contact me directly to book)

Can I bring my child for reflexology?
Yes! Reflexology is safe for all ages. I offer shorter sessions for babies, children, and teenagers, helping with issues like sleep, anxiety, and emotional balance. A parent or guardian must be present for anyone under 16.
Is reflexology the same as a foot massage?
No, reflexology is very different from a massage. It’s a targeted therapy that applies pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, or ears to help support overall health. It’s not just about relaxation—it’s about restoring balance in the body.
Will I feel any side effects after reflexology?
Most people feel deeply relaxed and refreshed after their session. Occasionally, some may experience temporary reactions like:
✔ Feeling extra sleepy or energised
✔ Mild headaches or thirst (a sign of the body rebalancing)
These are completely normal and usually pass within a day. Drinking water and resting will help.
