Cath Relaxology

Cath Relaxology Cath Relaxology is a home based Reflexology practice offering relaxation treatments of Foot, Face, H Welcome to Cath Relaxology.

I'm Cathy and my treatments are all about relaxation - something we all need! Reflexology is an amazing treatment I stumbled across several years ago while I was doing short interest courses at the Canterbury College of Natural Medicine. I couldn't believe how relaxed yet energised I felt after a treatment. Anyway I started doing some research and liked the principal behind reflexology - that it h

as been used in some form or another by most cultures for many thousands of years. After finishing my diploma training I started my original practice in Moncks Bay back in 2010 and enjoyed having a regular return client base. The Feb 2011 earthquake shook us out of that area and we moved to Sydney mid 2011. I continued my reflexology practice in Neutral Bay at Encompass Health Centre and I also volunteered at The Mater Hospital in their Renal Dialysis unit, treating people while they were having dialysis. While in Australia I took the opportunity to continue learning and studied Facial Reflexology which is an amazing treatment devised by a Danish Reflexologist Lone Sorensen. I also did shorter workshops on infertility and pregnancy loss. In my Neutral Bay practice I had many pregnant clients some of whom used the Gentle Birth Method during their pregnancies. This involves regular reflexology to keep the body in balance and provide relaxation for the busy mum to be. Due to my husband's work my family then moved to Singapore for the year of 2014. I didn't have a work visa so used the year to experience different styles of Asian reflexology, including treatments in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. This enlightened my own practice in many areas so much so that when I returned to NZ I studied with Moss Arnold to begin learning Chi Reflexology - working with the Chinese meridians and energy flows throughout the body. So it's time to set up practice once again in beautiful Sovereign Lakes in Kaiapoi. If you've never tried reflexology before and are curious then come along for a one hour treatment. I can assure you it will be one of the most blissful relaxation experiences you've ever had! Some people don't like their feet touched and think it will tickle but the pressure used and the technique is not at all ticklish. There may be some areas of pain, but that is an indication you are holding stress in that area of your body and massaging it out with reflexology is the best treatment you can have. I'm flexible with my treatments and timing. Even though it says one hour, especially on your first treatment we talk about your health and wellbeing and what you'd like to get out of the session, so it usually takes a bit longer. Some people have specific health concerns that require extra attention. There are a few contraindications for reflexology but I can tell you that when I lived in Asia there was no interview or consent forms to sign, they just started working on your feet with incredibly strong pressure with no questions asked. I'm not saying this is good but just comparing to us Westerners who require informed consent and insurance coverage for all things. Facial reflexology is a great option if you really don't want your feet touched. I can also do hand and ear reflexology which is just as effective and relaxing. If you have an queries give me a call, text or email and I'll get back to you asap. I am a professional member of Reflexology New Zealand and as such are bound by their Code of Ethics and Practice and can assure you all information I collect is treated in the upmost confidence it requires. If you've read this whole blurb then well done! I look forward to meeting you and working together on your wellbeing. Thanks for reading....

Groundbreaking Research on the effects of reflexology 👏👣🙏

Research into the effects and impact of Reflexology is gaining momentum!
We are delighted and excited that this latest research will be presented at the upcoming ISMRM conference to neuroscientists from around the world!

We wholeheartedly thank Kunz & Kunz Reflexology for continuing to pursue and championing this groundbreaking research on the benefits of Reflexology!

🧠 A Historic Milestone for Reflexology! 🏆
We are beyond excited to announce that Dr. Stefan Posse will be presenting groundbreaking fMRI research — “Neural Pathways of Applied Reflexology” — at the prestigious International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) annual conference in Cape Town, South Africa!
ISMRM represents 6,000–8,000 neuroscientists and MRI researchers from around the globe — making this one of the most significant scientific audiences reflexology has ever reached.
This is the second time reflexology research has been brought to a stage of this caliber, bridging the worlds of complementary therapy and cutting-edge neuroimaging. Dr. Posse’s work is a profound validation of what our community has believed for decades.
Please share this announcement — the more we amplify this moment, the greater the impact! 🌍🙌

As reflexologists we never can diagnose a condition, but finding a tender area in the foot informs us there may be an imbalance in the body, mind or spirit…

Tenderness can be linked to:
🔆 tension or stress held in the nervous system
🔆 areas that have been compensating or overworking
🔆 emotional or mental issues
🔆 reduced circulation or mobility in that area

As reflexology continues, these tender spots often soften.
This is a beautiful sign that the body is responding, rebalancing and letting go.

Your body speaks through your feet, hands, face and ears not to alarm you, but to guide you.
Reflexology simply listens and supports that conversation.

Gentle awareness creates change.
And your body always knows the way back to balance 💚

Why some areas on the feet feel tender or painful during Reflexology

A question I’m often asked is:
“Why does that spot on my foot feel tender?”

Tenderness in certain areas of the feet is very common, and it’s not something to worry about.

The feet reflect the whole body.
When an area is sensitive, it can indicate that the corresponding part of the body/mind or nervous system has been under pressure, overworked, stressed or adapting to how a part of the body/mind change.
