Reflexology soothes the mind and re-balances the body
Maternity Reflexology
Pregnancy is one of natures miracles. Maternity reflexology is a fabulous treatment which allows valuable time for you to focus on your pregnancy and your baby.
Maternity reflexology is a wonderful treatment to have throughout your pregnancy. It is incredibly calming and relaxing, helping to reduce any stress and anxiety which you may be experiencing. In doing so, maternity reflexology helps to reduce stress hormones, which have a physical effect on the body.
Towards the end of your pregnancy reflexology helps to prepare the body for birth by helping you to relax and thus help with the production of Oxytocin, a hormone produced by the body. Stress reduces the production of oxytocin.
During the reflexology session, I will massage the lower leg in a slow, gentle, rhythmic manner. Not only does this feel amazing, it encourages the production of Oxytocin which has many benefits, including:
Increases your pain threshold
Reduces stress hormones
Reduces blood pressure and heart rate
Helps to induce sleep
Helps to promote uterine contractions
Helps with lactation
Maternity Reflexology can not induce a baby, being induced is a medical procedure. I am trained in reflexology techniques which I believe will help prepare the body for birth by supporting your body to relax and release any tension.
