REFLEXOLOGY
An ancient, holistic healing practice of stimulating the reflex points on the feet and hands to help bring body, mind and spirit into balance.
Beneficial for all ages (pregnancy, birth, babies, children, teenagers, adults, elderly)
What does Reflexology do for you…
• Eases Stress & Tension • Improves Circulation • Improves Nerve Flow
• Boosts Lymphatic function • Promotes detoxification • Increases energy & Vitality
• Improves Sleep Patterns • Reduces Pain • Enhances the body’s own natural healing process
In other words....you & your feet will feel fantastic after a reflexology treatment!
Apart from the obvious that reflexology helps sore, tired feet and makes you feel good, reflexology has been found to be effective for:
> Back and Neck Pain
> Sciatica
> Headaches, Migraines
> Infertility, Hormonal Imbalances, PMT, Menopause
> Arthritis
> Sleep Disorders
> Sports Injuries
> Digestive Disorders
> Stress-related Conditions
> Asthma
> Sinus Problems
> Colic
> Stroke
Suitable for all ages, the application and effect of reflexology is unique to each person. While Reflexologists do not claim to cure, diagnose or prescribe, the benefits of reflexology can have a powerful healing effect as it allows your body to regain its proper balance and remove unhealthy blockages that create illness.
Believe it or not, your feet really do tell a story, particularly to a Reflexologist…. your feet tell a story about your life and health – your feet represent the whole you. For example: we can see how much stress and tension you carry and where you carry it. Callouses, cracks, bunions & blisters, also represent aspects of you.
Reflexology is not just a foot massage (although I do incorporate a small amount of foot massage in my treatment to compliment the reflexology); massage only stimulates relaxation of the muscles in a particular area. Reflexology has a similar principle like when your Doctor hits your knee reflex and your leg kicks out automatically without your conscious thought; a Reflexologist is stimulating the same natural neurological responses in the body. In other words, your body will do whatever it needs to do to help with what is necessary in your body! Allow yourself to open up to the possibilities that through stimulating these reflexes in your feet or hands, you are helping your whole body, naturally!
Both Zone Therapy (the primary basis of reflexology study) and Meridian Therapy (Traditional Chinese Medicine) are based on the premise that energy channels or pathways traverse throughout the body, linking organs and body parts. Both ascertain that disease is caused by blockages. When congestions are cleared, energy is able to flow freely and your body is able to achieve a state of balance.
Another benefit of Reflexology is in helping to rid your body of unwanted toxins. Gravity naturally pulls toxins down from the body to the feet where they stagnate. By working on your feet, a reflexologist helps to move these toxins back into circulation so your body can expel them naturally. Combined with a healthy diet and exercise, reflexology can be very helpful in detoxing your body’s systems.
I am not intending to present reflexology as a substitute for medical treatment. In fact, reflexology works well with any medical treatment or therapy you may be undertaking – this is why it is called ‘complementary’.
It's important to remember that a Reflexologist cannot diagnose, prescribe, treat a specific illness, or cure your condition. What they can do, is help to relax your body, decrease pain, improve circulation, improve elimination, strengthen your immune system and provide a simple way to bring your body back into balance again. In essence, you will feel better.
It has been recorded that because Reflexology strengthens and improves your body’s processes that people on medication have had their dose reduced. This needs to be discussed with your doctor or health care professional & be monitored. Do not reduce medication yourself. So, if you are having regular reflexology and taking medications or herbal remedies, please make sure you keep the side effects monitored by your health professional.
Reflexology is also very beneficial for terminally ill patients; helping to ease their last days by relieving the constant pain they are living with....nothing compensates for human touch and the benefits of loving hands.
For me, this is the most rewarding field to be working in because of the opportunity to help others. The body is completely responsible for what it needs to do as reflexology helps to strengthen the body and it’s processes in a completely natural way.
Regular Reflexology is a great way to maintain your health; did you know it’s also beneficial to have a reflexology treatment when you’re not well? Reflexology helps your body to recover a feeling of wellbeing a lot quicker than if you did nothing. By stimulating the reflexes on the feet and/or hands you are helping your body to heal & balance itself. The sense of wellbeing that you feel is because you are creating harmony within yourself & this helps with life in general (the outer reflects the inner). Regular reflexology can help you to cope with life; there’s certainly many changes happening in our lives today and it’s important that we maintain balance in our lives.
Whether you’re feeling tired for no reason, have aches & pains in the body or maybe you just love having reflexology; a Reflexologist helps you get into deep relaxation, while the improved circulation transports nutrients throughout the body and removes waste products (which interfere with normal healthy body function). Energy is now able to flow unhindered, resulting in a feeling of total well-being. If you allow yourself to relax & work with the therapist, a profound healing response takes place within you; you are allowing yourself to accept the healing changes within you.
Reflexology aims to bring about greater unity of mind, body and spirit, as well as being an excellent form of relaxation. Regular reflexology treatments help create a state of balance and harmony within you and in your life!
A Reflexologist treats the body as a whole. For best results, your participation is required; in all holistic therapies, it is important that you take responsibility for your own state of health - this is very empowering!
With reflexology, I can also help you with:
> lymphatic drainage - helping to ease fluid retention & very effective for swelling in the feet & ankles and improve lymph flow (esp. good for when you're body is battling colds & flu)
> hormonal balancing
> strengthening the meridians (energy pathways) of the body
> maternity/baby reflexology
> foot care/hygiene
> foot/lower leg exercises
> and help you to understand your unconscious reasons for ailments via metaphysical reasons (the thoughts and feelings) and reading the feet
All of my consultations and treatments are individually tailored to suit your needs. The first visit involves a preliminary talk with you to determine your present and past health and lifestyle.
Reflexology is a natural therapy that can be used for pain relief and relaxation – when your feet feel good, so do you! With reflexology, we are stimulating your own body’s natural healing process – your body will do what it needs to do to create a healing effect. We can’t force a body do what isn’t natural to that body.
The application and effect of reflexology is unique to each person, because we are all unique.
If you let it, regular reflexology treatments can help create a state of balance and harmony within you & in your life! When you feel good on the inside, your whole life feels good!
All you need to do is remove your shoes and relax!
METAMORPHOSIS
Is for anyone who’s ready for change…Illness, Addictions, Stress-related behaviours & reactions; be it Physical, Emotional or Mental (mental illnesses & depression/syndromes/autism, asperges, etc).
Metamorphosis is ideal to assist people going through any period of transition; whether it's birth, death, marriage, divorce, changing jobs or schools, moving house or you're looking to empower yourself. Also beneficial for people with addictions or having a hard time letting go of old behavioral patterns, even though they want to.
• Enhance your Well-being • Honour you are your own Healer • Work with Intention • Expand
your Awareness • Deepen your Relationships • Connect to the Joy in your Spirit
‘Metamorphosis is essentially a self-healing art. Very simple to do & the effects can be quite dramatic. It is the sheer simplicity of Metamorphosis that makes the results so profound. Although Metamorphosis is an attitude of mind & very simple to use, we have been indoctrinated over the centuries by structures of thought in religion, philosophy & education in such a way that our ability to think & function from within is tied to these same structures & we are not free to think from our own inner intelligence. We need something to help us ‘unthink’ these structures. That, in principle, is what Metamorphosis is. What physical practice there is in Metamorphosis is a symbol for the mind to change all of the indoctrination of the past & to ‘be come’ the present. Metamorphosis heals at the most primary level, that of the principle of life within us. Metamorphosis does not ‘cure’; it enables us to create a different attitude towards life & it is this which alters our troubles & we cease to create illness. As these patterns change, we experience greater awareness, better health, genuine relationships & less conflict in life. As we change, the world around us changes!’
Robert St John, founder of Metamorphosis (Robert discovered Metamorphosis during the late 1950's & continued to develop Metamorphosis up until his death in 1996. His work continues worldwide)
Metamorphosis is about 'undoing' rather than creating. As you work with Metamorphosis, it is creating transformation within you in the purest form; releasing blockages to the point that we become in balance with all aspects of life. The theme of Metamorphosis is that everyone is his or her own healer and the healing comes from the inside, out.
Practitioners aren't referred to as practitioners, but as 'Catalysts' - a catalyst for change. The aim of the session is not to 'heal', but to facilitate change. Metamorphosis is ultimately about realising your true potential from within by eliminating blockages/behaviour patterns sitting within the unconscious & holding you back.
Everybody can benefit and Metamorphosis is suitable for all ages. Issues manifest because we have created blockages within us (from our thoughts, feelings & beliefs that can stem back to our time of conception & beyond) that stop us from being in balance - release the blockages and the condition can also be released - it's as simple as that!
This release creates a sense of freedom, health & wellbeing within yourself: as your patterns let go, you naturally begin to feel your connection to the greater source of life. The connection was always there, but our blocks often create a sense of separation.
An excerpt from www.metamorphosis.com : METAMORPHOSIS AND THE GLOBAL PICTURE by Cindy Silverlock (c)
I know there is growing concern about the global picture on government, the economy and overall well-being.
Robert St. John predicted, as many others have as well, that we are going through a shift in consciousness. The Metamorphosis perspective sees this is that afference and efference (consciousness and matter) are coming into better harmony. We will experience some discomfort during this time.
Robert had a keen observation that we are entering a new paradigm and that the healing arts creating in the old paradigm will not be as effective.
Metamorphosis was created for this time, to help us successfully shift into a new way of being. He felt that we were potentially on the brink of demise and that the simplicity of Metamorphosis along with its far reaching scope of intention will help us individually and collectively move forward with less chaos and drama.
Metamorphosis is about breaking down hierarchy and truly honoring that we are self healing and that we can shift out of the negative patterns of illness, disharmony, chaos and drama.
