The Balanced Reflex

27/01/2025

Sure signs that Spring is in sight now - catkin tails are dropping, aconites are showing their little yellow heads, and the birds are singing again. I’ve adopted the mode of Wintering this year, whereby I’ve used January to rest and recharge after the rush of December, rather than flail around in a gym in an effort to salve my conscience. I’m ready for longer walks and building up some stamina now. Also taking bookings for reflexology treatments 👣

You know those days when you feel just not quite right? Can’t really say what’s up, but it’s not like it should be?
Most likely it’s because something is out of balance - the chi energy that should be flowing freely around your body might have got stuck somewhere.
Reflexology can assist your body to shuffle that energy along and get you feeling tip-top again. If nothing else, you’ll leave feeling better than when you arrived! And you only have to take your socks off ( hands and face work too 🙂)

It seems appropriate to reignite The Balanced Reflex and it’s presence online, during this week of Mental Health Awareness. It’s been quiet, as I’ve had a few things to figure out for myself - and now my current clients have noticed the increased energy I’m working with. There’s nothing like deep relaxation to help rebalance the mind and the body. Try it - you will be pleasantly surprised.
As someone said to me - “I know for sure, that I will feel better leaving your treatment room, than I did when I arrived”.

Mmmmmm a breath of fresh air and the promise of Spring just around the corner. It’s so good to be out in the sunshine. And I actually hugged a tree🌳. Felt almost as good a a reflexology treatment…..

Relocation for The Balanced Reflex won’t be happening anytime soon, so I’m back up and running in Eagle for the foreseeable future.
Welcome back previous clients, sorry for the interruption in service! 👣

Menopausal sleep deprivation is arguably one of the worst symptoms- it appears reflexology might help. Read on…….

The impact of foot massage given to postmenopausal women on anxiety, fatigue, and sleep: a randomized-controlled trial

“It was determined that foot massage applied during menopause increases the average daily sleep duration (hours) and reduces women's fatigue and anxiety levels.”

Sleep. Is a lack of it an issue? This client of mine arrived in a state of great anxiety because sleep was eluding her, and it was getting into a downward spiral. The results speak for themselves.

It makes my day when I get feedback from my clients - and this one made me giggle too.
The loveliest of ladies was exhausted and stressed - an hour of reflexology worked wonders for her - she switched off from the world and RELAXED😌

It’s Time!! Tackle the most natural of female transitions with the most natural of holistic therapies.
A combination of facial, foot and hand treatments has been developed to help the body to better manage the hormonal changes that can cause havoc.
Reflexology might be a substitute for HRT where that’s proving to be unsuitable, or it can be an assist to HRT. Come try it - you won’t regret it!

It’s been quiet on the Balanced Reflex socials - but lots going on in the background.
Four of us are training for a 26 mile hike in May to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Care. Yesterday was our last “big” training walk of 15 miles. The lesson learned from that was that walking together makes a world of difference in keeping each other going. I nearly failed on mile 2 in my head, but just got swept along by my brilliant teammates. And thoroughly enjoyed the remaining 13.
There is a justgiving page set up if you’d like to donate to Macmillan: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/bulltops?utm_source=sms&utm_medium=fundraising&utm_content=bulltops&utm_campaign=pfp-sms&utm_term=504f66eec3124755a4bdf9909bc26099
The other big BR news is that I shall be offering facial reflexology treatments soon, having trained with the wonderful Ziggie Bergman facial reflexology method.
Wishing everyone happy May Day /Beltane / new moon / solar eclipse - there’s plenty of inspirational energy to work with this weekend ✨🌙🌞❤️
