REFLEXOLOGY…….

Did you know that all therapists SHOULD abide by the Advertising Standards Agency guidelines?

The ASA states that ALL advertising must be legal, decent, honest and truthful.

Applying those guidelines to therapists means that we cannot advertise that our treatments can cure or even help certain conditions. We can only refer to 5 benefits of reflexology that have been proven by rigorous research.

🌷Improved mood
🌷 Relaxation
🌷 Release of tension
🌷 Aids sleep
🌷 Increased sense of wellbeing

So, Reflexology has been proven to improve mood, give you a little spring in your step, a natural ‘high’.

Whatever the reason for you feeling a little ‘meh’, under par or just out of sorts reflexology may be just what you need.

CHELMSFORD TREATMENTS AVAILABLE THIS THURSDAY

As part of World Reflexology Week, Phoenix are holding a pamper day to raise funds for Farleigh Hospice

We have a couple of Crystal Chakra Fusion treatments available on Thursday
A deeply restorative experience combining ancient energy practices with soothing massage and the healing power of crystals.
Your session begins with a calming cleansing ritual to create a sacred, peaceful space for both body and mind. Crystals are then carefully placed along your chakra points, encouraging balance, harmony, and energy flow throughout the body.
Gentle stimulation of key marma and pressure points helps to release tension and restore vitality, while focused massage techniques ease the shoulders, décolleté, arms, head, and face. These nurturing strokes melt away stress, improve circulation, and leave you feeling lighter and more centred.

THE(LAS) VAGUS NERVE.
Like the destination, this is where all the good stuff happens!

The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve and the only one that descends past the neck.

It’s responsible for (up to) 75% activation of the ‘rest and digest’ mode of the nervous system - the parasympathetic nervous state. It plays an important role in regulating involuntary functions within the body such as heart rate, rate and depth of breath and also digestion.

In the ‘rest and digest’ mode the body perceives no threat, feels safe and so quietens heart and lungs and increases eliminatory responses (wee and poo!)

Therapists aim to evoke this state during your treatment - it’s called ;-

🌷 rest and digest
🌷 feed and breed
🌷 heal and seal

If you are always on high alert you’re more than likely in ‘fight/flight/freeze’ mode where the bad stuff happens! Don’t get me wrong, we need some F/F/F to get us up out of bed but too much is detrimental to your wellbeing and physical health.

Other ways to tap into your PSNS (the vagus nerve) are:-

🌷 singing
🌷 cold water bathing
🌷 meditating
🌷 walking in nature
🌷 gentle exercise
🌷 social activities
🌷 a favourite hobby
🌷 helping others
🌷 having your favourite treatment

What do you do to activate Las Vegas, baby?

Do you have a Gua Sha?
Bought on a whim?
Don’t know what to do with it?

Please do use it! It’s not hard! Here’s how:-

🌷 use as part of your skincare ritual
🌷 it won’t take long
🌷 use on cleansed skin
🌷 use an oil to provide slip
🌷 try out all the different sides to see what’s comfortable for you
🌷 only takes a minute
🌷 use the ‘heart shaped’ end to get into jawline/cheekbone/eyebrow
🌷 use on neck too
🌷 it’s great on back of neck

Anything goes really BUT…….

The direction of yours strokes is ALWAYS UP.

So,
🌷 neck - stroke up
🌷 jawline - across to ear and up to cheekbone
🌷 cheekbone - out and up
🌷 forehead - out and up

NEVER DOWN - no matter what you’ve seen on the socials - it is not draining the lymph by dragging the tool down your neck - you’re just creating a turkey neck!

Have a go using your tool!
