Put your Feet up, Put your Brain down, Relax with Reflexology
Reflexology is a deeply relaxing, ancient therapy. Below are some research study results that show great benefits to a wide number of conditions:
- A 2007 study noted that Reflexology reduced ‘state’ anxiety and cardiovascular activity consistent with stress reduction
- A 2009 study with MS patients showed that Reflexology lowered stress cortisol levels and supported muscle relaxation
- A 2011 study showed that Reflexology significantly improved quality of sleep
- A 2013 study suggested Reflexology may be useful in the treatment of pain conditions
- A 2012 pilot study has shown that Reflexology lymph drainage techniques reduce swelling caused by secondary lymphoedema

The Benefits
Reflexology is a very relaxing therapy and a moderate amount of research has been carried out on various conditions. However, it is not permitted to state that Reflexology can cure. It may provide a reduction in stress which may cause an improvement in stress related conditions.
Well-being may be only two feet away!
Anecdotally, Reflexology has helped many individuals and you may wish to read my client testimonials.
