Upon your first visit, I will provide an intake form to be filled out which provides me with a brief insight into your medical history. I will use this information to better understand how I can best curate a session for your specific health and wellness needs.

For the hands-on portion of the session, you will be invited to lay on a comfortable and relaxing massage table where I will provide reflexology on your feet. If you require separate accommodations, such as a reclining chair instead, please let me know.

You will be fully clothed during your session, the bodywork provided is specific to your feet and lower legs.

This is your time to rest and receive - so whether you’d like to chat or ask questions during, meditate quietly, or fall into a restful sleep - is completely up to you!‍

‍Please plan to wear whatever clothing is comfortable for you, it is recommended to wear pants/bottoms that allow access to your lower legs, as that area is included in the reflexology bodywork.

‍Reflexology is considered safe for most people and can be a beneficial complementary therapy for various conditions. However, there are some individuals who may need to exercise caution or avoid reflexology altogether. Considerations may include:

• Medical Conditions: People with certain medical conditions, such as severe circulatory issues, recent surgery, or specific foot ailments (like plantar warts or fractures), should consult with a healthcare provider before receiving reflexology.
• Pregnancy: While many women find reflexology helpful during pregnancy, it's essential to inform the reflexologist of your condition, as certain techniques may not be suitable.
• Chronic Illnesses: Individuals with chronic illnesses (such as diabetes or cancer) should seek physician approval to ensure reflexology is appropriate for their situation.
• Sensitivity: Those with sensitive feet or specific allergies should discuss their concerns prior to treatment.

‍The short answer is no. While practitioners may sometimes use a firmer pressure on reflex points that show heightened congestion, reflexology is generally a lighter-touch modality. The goal isn't to work deeply into muscles, but to stimulate reflex points on the feet (or hands) that correspond with different areas of the body - encouraging balance, relaxation, and improved function.

Think of reflexology less like muscle work, more like a reset button for the body through the feet!

‍Suggested frequency of sessions is dependent on individual needs and goals, and is easier to determine after a first session. Some people come weekly at first to support stress relief, pain management, or specific health concerns, while others find that every other week or once a month helps maintain balance and wellness.

‍Please feel free to reach out if you would like to know more before scheduling an appointment! If you already have a session scheduled, there is always time before, during, and after the session to go over any questions that may surface.
