A Holistic Way to Improving your Health.
What is Reflexology
Reflexology is a specific pressure technique applied to the feet where all the internal body structures and organs are mapped or mirrored in miniature.
​
On the feet are reflex points which correspond to different organs of the body and by pressing or working on one of these points the corresponding organ is treated.
If crystals or tenderness is felt in a certain area it is an indication of a blockage or imbalance in the corresponding organ or body parts.
​
Crystals are waste deposits made up of excess calcium and uric acid that build up when the metabolism is not working correctly. As a reflexologist I will spend time working on these crystals and sensitive areas using the thumbs and sometimes fingers to help release the blockages and break down the deposits so they can be eliminated by the body.
​
Reflexology is a a very safe, relaxing and non invasive -meaning that the area being treated is being treated not at the site of pain but from the hand/foot which is so helpful particularly when you are dealing with alot of pain and sensitivty. It's aim is to help the body to heal itself and to maintain a balanced state of health.
Testimonials
“I brought my two boys to Martina a number of times over the last few years and she was fantastic with them. My eldest suffers badly each year from hayfever which effects his chest and Martina performed her magic to ease the symptoms. She even showed me how to do some home treatments with him to alleviate symptoms when they first appear which has helped a lot. She is always there to offer advice and follows up post treatment to see how they are doing. Would highly recommend her!’

Martina makes you feel so relaxed from the word go. She focuses on the entire pattern of the reflexology therapy, starting at the toes and working down the foot. You just never want to leave. I Highly recommend Martina if you want to leave all your stress behind.

A detailed consultation and history is obtained from my clients on the first visit which is normally slightly longer than subsequent visits-a treatment is normally 45 mins but this can vary depending on the client all in all you would be with me for an hour.
I have included a video here just to give a small insight into what a a reflexology treatment is all about-have a look and see what you think
some of the feedback I get is after a treatment:
I am so relaxed after
I feel so much calmer
I feel so energised
My digestion has improved
my skin is so much clearer-I didn't get a break out this month-like I always do
I have slept so much deeper since I began treatments
Reflexology is holistic healing physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually
