Reflexology
RELAXATION AND STRESS REDUCTION
Reflexology is a focused pressure technique typically directed to the feet and or hands. It is based on the premise that there are reflexes and zones on the hands and feet which correspond to all parts, systems, glands and organs of the body. Reflexology works when the reflexes are stimulated and the body’s natural electrical energy works along the nervous system to clear any blockages in the corresponding zones. A typical session might help break up deposits which are felt like a gritty or a sandy area beneath the skin and could potentially interfere with the body’s electrical energy in the nervous system. By manipulating specific reflexes, the body’s parasympathetic nervous system is activated, stress is reduced and blockages are released by the physiological changes in the body. With stress relieved and circulation enhanced, the body returns to a normal state (homeostasis).
Benefits of Reflexology include:
· A nurturing touch for relaxation and pampering · Deep relaxation and stress reduction · Improved circulation and nerve function · Gentle detoxification
· Helping the body’s systems function effectively · Pain reduction and improved healing
· Mental calm, clarity and focus

HAND Reflexoloy
HAND REFLEXOLOGY
Very similar to Foot Reflexology, hand reflexology uses similar zones and specific reflex points that correspond to every part of the body including organs and glands. Working with these reflex areas promotes healing in the corresponding body part or system by stimulating the flow of energy and dispersing blockages. It is used to relieve stress and tension, improve blood supply, promote nerve conduction. Reflexology can bring about a state of deep relaxation with the intention of balancing all body systems and promoting good health.
Why Hand Reflexology?
We use our hands frequently and the hands are subject to all of the elements. The hands are also a sensory organ with the ability to receive information and feel sensation. Hand Reflexology uses these senses to send a message to the body to relax and let go of stress and tension. This directly benefits the nervous system, promoting healing and homeostasis in the whole body.
Hand Reflexology benefits include:
General relaxation
Specific reflex effects to remove blockages and restore balance
Rejuvenation to the hands
Soothing treatment for arthritic hands
Improved flexibility of the hand and its overall ability to function

Amygdala Release Therapy or The Black Pearl Technique is a stress reduction method that calms the nervous system, sending the over-activated Amygdala into a state of calm and ease. The Amygdala is a processing centre for emotions and is part of the Limbic system that controls emotions, memories, mood, and arousal. This technique uses massage-like motions, holds, and specific pressure points on the head to gently soothe and reset the nervous system, calm the body, and shift emotional patterns. It can help facilitate emotional detoxification, including releasing deep seated memories and/or emotions to promote a state of deep relaxation and serenity by reconfiguring the emotional centre of the brain.
