I am qualified in treating maternity patients and have undergone a postgraduate reflexology course in fertility and pregnancy.

Reflexology & Fertility
Many of the disharmonies and disorders that may occur during a woman’s fertile life respond well to reflexology treatments. Reflexology works on balancing all body systems for the man and the women, optimising the chances for them to conceive. Reflexology treatments can help the client cope with the emotional as well as physical side of infertility and can help create a balanced mine, body and spirit. Infertility can be an extremely stressful time for the both partners, and reflexology treatments can help the body return to a state of balance and well being without being an intrusive medical treatment.

Reflexology & Pregnancy
Reflexology is very popular amongst women who are pregnant. It is the one time where they can feel pampered, relaxed and can experience some quality time bonding with the unborn baby. Dr Gowri Motha, Reflexologist, obstetrician and pioneer in water births in London “discovered that the effects of reflexology during the antenatal period on labour outcomes were outstanding”. Some conditions during pregnancy can benefit from regular reflexology treatments such as: Backache, Symphysis Pubis Pain, Heartburn, Morning sickness, constipation/diarrhoea, headaches, and many more. Reflexology can also help to stimulate labour if the baby goes overdue and both mother and baby are ready. It can help prevent the need of medical intervention and the need to induce labour.
