Reflexology
Reflexology is a complimentary therapy,
based on the same principles as Chinese acupuncture.
Pressure-point massage of the feet was used in China over 5.000 years ago, as well as by the Ancient Egyptions, Hopi tribes of North America and 16th century European medical practitioners.
Reflexology is based on the theory that every organ, area and
system of the body is mirrored by a reflex point in the feet.
By massaging these points in the feet the reflexologist can
observe and facilitate a clearing of any blockages in the
corresponding areas of the body.

on your feet.
Reflexology is widely used as a treatment for gynaecological problems
as well as digestive disorders, insomnia, headaches and stress.
Indeed the list of conditions that reflexology is used to treat is quite vast
and it is increasingly being used as a support to traditional fertility
treatments.
The number of clients I have attending for reflexology and acupuncture
treatments relating to fertility is steadily rising each year due to the
positive feedback and referrals from previous clients together with
increased acceptance and recognition of reflexology as
a suitable treatment.
I attend as a reflexologist and massage therapist in the Gary Kelly
Cancer Support Centres in Drogheda and monaghan.
At the Crocus Cancer Support Group in Monaghan I teach Yoga.
I also provide accupuncture services for the MS centre in Trim and
reflexology for the East Meath MS society.
Reflexology, massage and acupuncture are often reccomended to
cancer patients and those recovering from cancer.
