Frequently Asked Questions
How many treatments will I need?This is different for each person. Sometimes there is an immediate improvement felt after just one treatment but generally a course of treatments would be beneficial, which could be weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
After your initial treatment I will recommend a treatment plan.
Many people find it beneficial to have regular monthly treatments in order to maintain good health and well-being.
Is Reflexology safe in pregnancy?
Yes it is generally considered safe provided all is well with your pregnancy and that the reflexologist knows that you are pregnant.
It is normally recommended that where the mother-to-be has not received reflexology previously, that she waits until week 13 until her placenta is fully established. If you have had reflexology prior to becoming pregnant, then it should be safe to have treatment from conception, but this would need to be discussed with your practioner.
How many treatments should I have to benefit during pregnancy?
This varies depending on the pregnancy and how you feel, however a total of 6 to 10+ treatments is recommended to gain the most benefit
When can I commence treatment during pregnancy?
Reflexology is completely safe in pregnancy and you could start anytime, but in general most people prefer to wait until week 13 of their pregnancy.
Testimonials
My Partner and I had been trying for a baby for a number of years without success. We Heard that reflexology can assist with getting pregnant and we both started going to see Lesley in November 2008. Lesley spent time with us both individually and we had sessions twice a month.We both felt the benefits of reflexology and in February 2009 I fell pregnant. During my pregnancy I continued to see Lesley on a regular basis and we focused on different aspects as the pregnancy progressed e.g. as the baby developed, dealing with the labour and milk production for after the birth.
We now have a beautiful baby girl and seeing Lesley definitely helped with getting pregnant, the worries of being pregnant, dealing with the labour and the early months of having a new born baby. I continue to see Lesley on a regular basis. Patricia.C
As I started my menopause I was looking for an alternative to HRT, pills or potions. Regular reflexology sessions with Lesley has allowed me to manage my hot flushes and mood changes as well as a chance to relax and unwind and have some "me time". I am happy to say I'm out the other side feeling more confident and would recommend that you give reflexology a try Simoni. J.
I was a bit sceptical of reflexology but thought I'd try it to see if there really were any benefits and have been amazed by the improvements I have seen in my all round health and general well-being, particularly in alleviating my stress levels. Lesley has been fantastic during many months of visits, showing great empathy and undertaking the sessions in a really professional way. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lesley to anybody that wants to try reflexology Ian. B
