Grab a coffee, this is quite a long read ☕️😅
Why I became a Reflexologist 👣💖
My curiosity got the better of me!
Back in 2006 when I was working as a carer in a home for blind and partially sighted residents, I witnessed the power of touch. ✋️
Observing how totally blind people navigate their way around their home, without any injury was inspiring.🤕
Feet and hands became their guides.
When someone was scared or anxious, the simple act of hand holding and gentle rubbing had a profound calming reaction.😌
I remember getting a bowl of soft snow one wintery day, and gently helping a lady to put her hands in to touch it. ❄️
She had been born blind, and had never had the pleasure of seeing or playing in the snow. 💔
Aged 98, feeling snow for the first time. Her smile spoke volumes, and she giggled alot. 😊😂
I needed to learn more and enrolled on my first Reflexology course with the British School of Yoga.👩🎓
This course was amazing, and fuelled my growing desire to one day be a qualified Reflexologist.
I was fascinated by the history and the research. Evidence of pain relief, hormone balance without the need for medication? Wow...💖
Fast forward to 2023. After many years working in health and social care, I needed to explore this therapy in more detail and enrolled with the British School of Reflexology in London. 🎓
I left a full time job thats was draining me of energy due to an exhausting daily commute.

A life changing decision, I decided to work part time while I studied. 💭
After completing over 150 treatments and case studies, completed an exam in anatomy and physiology, I once again qualified. 📝
Blue Bell Reflexology was born 💙 👣
If you want to know why I chose this name for my small business, head over to my website to learn more. 🔎
I am incredibly proud of myself for making that leap!
Never look back.
Keep going forward 💪 ✨️
Best decision ever. 👏
I get to meet so many different people, made some wonderful friendships along the way, and continue to learn and strengthen my skills 🙌
Don't be afraid of change and always try to do something that makes you happy, and puts you slightly out of your comfort zone!! 😊
