Reflexology Therapists in Chelmsford
Reflexology is a non-intrusive complementary massage health therapy, designed to promote wellness throughout the body. The popular holistic healing therapy aims to bring your body back into balance and harmony. This can be achieved by applying pressure to certain parts of the body to uncover ‘blockages’ and using techniques to help to clear them and have your mind and body put back into balance.
Reflexology is also known as a treatment that aims to restore the body to homeostasis, the point where your body is at its equilibrium. The treatment is also used to clear ‘zones’ in the body so that energy can flow unrestricted. Your dedicated reflexology Chelmsford specialist will work on any imbalances in the body so that we can potentially help you to be free of any pain or discomfort that you may be experiencing, such as digestive problems, respiratory problems and pain and inflammation.
The Faye Pattison Physiotherapy team has over 30 years of experience collectively in therapy treatments, alongside advanced training and skills, which has made us one of Chelmsford’s most highly recommended reflexology specialists.
Our friendly and welcoming clinic is based in Chelmsford, so please call us today on 01245 901170 to speak to a member of the team to arrange your next treatment session.
What is reflexology?
Reflexology is a complementary therapy, which works by applying gentle pressure to the feet or hands to stimulate energy pathways in the body. The treatment works on energy pathways, similar to acupuncture. By pressing on certain points in the feet and hands, energy ‘blockages’ can be released, and balance can be restored back into the body.
If during the treatment session we find tender, sensitive or ‘crunchy’ sensations in your feet, this tends to indicate that an area of your body is out of balance. We will press points and work them gently to help kickstart your body’s natural healing powers. The treatment aims to target reflex points, which corresponds to different body organs and systems.
