Cold feet for example could be an indicator of poor circulation and damp, sweaty feet could indicate a hormonal imbalance. It is also quite common to have some hard skin over a reflex which needs attention and after several treatments you will find that your hard skin has gone, this is because your posture may change as your body is brought into balance.
Your Reflexologist may apply a small amount of cream or powder to help them to work their fingers and thumbs across the reflex points on your feet to stimulate them. The pressure your Reflexologist uses will be firm but not painful and should not tickle. A typical treatment starts and ends with some gentle relaxation techniques, then your Practitioner will work the reflexes of the whole foot and ankles.
Your Reflexologist will return to areas where they feel more work is required. Different reflexes may spark different sensations, do tell your therapist if you feel any sensations as your treatment progresses and they will tell you what they have felt
Before you leave your session you may if the therapist feels it is necessary be given dietary advice or some self help exercises, you will definitely be advised to drink plenty of water.
Please do not eat a heavy meal 1.5 - 2 hours prior to your treatment.
