Reflexology

Since April 2024, Rosemarie has held individual Reflexology appointments here at Hub 21 for children of the suggested aged of  7/8 years and older. Each session is approximately 30 minutes long and a child can book in for a one off session, weekly or bi-weekly. Currently they run on Wednesday afternoon/evenings during term time.

Reflexology is a compression technique that focuses on specific pressure points in the hands and feet. These pressure points contain nerve endings that can cause reflex responses throughout the body and through light and steady pressure, the activation of these impulses can promote healing and relaxation throughout the body. Reflexology triggers relaxation, resulting in reduced levels of stress and tension. This practice is also helpful in increasing blood flow and circulation throughout the body. While reflexology should not be used as a replacement for medical therapy, it can nicely complement your ongoing medical treatments (service users will need to complete a consultation and consent form prior to commencing any sessions.)

​

The effects of reflexology are unique to the individual. While some will experience a sense of relaxation and well-being, others find it to be quite energizing. Your body’s response to the treatment could be instantaneous, however, most people usually notice the full benefits after 4-6 sessions.
