Reflexology: relax and let your body do the rest: restore, renew, refresh and reset. All while you are tucked up on a heated couch cocooned away from the stresses of the outside world.

Who knew that looking after yourself doesn’t have to be hard work? Reflexology lowers cortisol levels and therefore helps with sleep, hormone balancing, stress reduction and general well-being.

Even just a once a month treatment can help support you in whatever you want to achieve: from trying for a baby to addressing menopause symptoms or just having some time out.

I’m a qualified clinical reflexologist with an extensive understanding of the body’s natural systems. I work from my lovely treatment room in Dunbar. Please message me if you would like more information.

Thank you and a happy new year to all my lovely clients including those I have yet to meet ! Andrea x

Over the festive season we know some families and individuals will be looking for answers in their journey to become pregnant.

For that reason, today we are answering the question; "Does Reproflexology™ really work?"

In a study we conducted, 68% of individuals conceived whilst under the care of our reproductive reflexologists.

180 clients were in the study, 122 conceived whilst receiving reflexology, 100 conceived naturally, and a further 22 were being supported during IVF.

We hear success stories from our members on a regular basis.

Reproflexology™ provides a structured and prescriptive approach to fertility issues using medical testing to support evidence of its outcomes alongside the majority of couples having a baby at the end of their treatment.

How does Reproflexology™ work?

The primary care is centred around the people rather than symptoms.

We combine conventional and complementary therapies which focus on treating the whole person, rather than just isolated symptoms. This is called "integrative medicine".

Reproflexology™ uses specific and prescriptive treatment protocols to address fertility health for both men and women.

This includes providing support to:

- regulate menstrual cycles and ensure that each stage is functioning at its best
- improve s***m production and functionality
- assist any underlying conditions – male or female
- track improvements by using results from medical testing
- enhance both physical and mental health to optimal levels

Our Reproflexologists are all trained to our exacting standards and offer excellent care. Helping our families conceive naturally or with medical assistance.

You can find your local Reproflexologist via our global directory on our website.

Breakthrough in Reflexology Research

Reflexology is making history!
Recent brain scan research by Dr. Stefan Posse and Kevin Kunz shows unique brain activity patterns lighting up after reflexology.

This is a proof that this gentle therapy truly supports brain function and whole-body balance. You feel it and I have seen many amazing benefits with clients, now the science is showing it.

Touch therapy helps release your body of stored trauma and stress. All of us experience trauma throughout our lives and we have been taught to suppress it in order to keep functioning in our daily lives.

But that stored trauma doesn’t go away unless we do something positive to help ourselves heal - such as talk therapy (counselling/cognitive behavioural therapy) and touch therapy.

Our ancestors understood the importance of healing through touch and the art of reflexology and massage was widely used in many different ancient societies.

I specialise in the hugely beneficial touch therapy of reflexology.

Reflexology although working on the soles of your feet works the whole of your body by relaxing your central nervous system and slowing and deepening your breathing. Your body in this relaxed state can then direct healing to where it’s needed - improving sleep, reducing the symptoms of stress and helping to support the body balance hormones.

Commonly said by clients after an hour’s session of reflexology are ‘magical, can I just stay here on this couch for the rest of the day. It’s like no other form of relaxation’ 💖

Menopause can bring a wave of physical and emotional challenges—hot flushes, sleep disturbances, mood swings, joint pain, and more. But what if something as simple as foot reflexology could help?

💡 In a recent study of 90 postmenopausal women, researchers found that 12 reflexology sessions over 6 weeks (just 15 minutes per foot, twice a week) led to a significant improvement in quality of life.

Here’s what they discovered:
✔️ Reduced physical and emotional symptoms
✔️ Improved sleep, mood, and energy levels
✔️ Lasting benefits even two months after the sessions ended
✔️ All achieved without medication or side effects

Meanwhile, the control group who received no reflexology showed no meaningful change in their wellbeing.

✨ Whether you're a practitioner or simply someone navigating midlife, reflexology offers a grounding, supportive, and restorative tool.

🦶 Because sometimes the most powerful transformations start at your feet.

If you’ve been trying for a baby for a while and it’s not happening it can feel very isolating -it’s a deeply private and personal journey.

Many of us spent the earlier part of our adulthood trying to not to get pregnant so when we decide that we are ready for a baby we can’t help but expect it to happen immediately.

Each month is full of expectation only for disappointment when yet another period arrives with all its accompanying delights.

There are so many factors influencing the ability to conceive that it can be overwhelming - often made worse when you know that stress doesn’t help conception.

Reproreflexology is an amazing way to help deal with all of those outside pressures. To get back in touch with your body and your cycle. To relax, switch off and let your body do the rest.

At the initial reproreflexology consultation we will do a full collection of your circumstances to date and then do a deeply relaxing reproreflexology treatment - supporting your body with treatments at each stage of your cycle. As often or as little as you feel you can manage.

Reproreflexology can also be used in tandem with IVF and other fertility treatments.

If you’d like to know more, please get in touch. 💖
