Every treatment is a shared experience.
Even though, as the professional therapist, I facilitate the session and give the treatment, it is the two of us that are present, and as such the energy dynamic of us both that is within the room.
Of course, as per professional etiquette, the therapist-client relationship is created on trust, respect, empathy and confidentiality, and the treatment room is a secure, boundaried and comfortable space. I am there to aid your holistic wellness, and to ensure that your experience is relaxing, nurturing and restorative.
Before getting on the couch for your treatment, every session begins with taking the case, and if you are a return client then we discuss updates. It is important to document your starting point ie why you are coming for treatment, and as we go along with ongoing sessions then how things have hopefully improved, and any new things that need attention. It is important that as your reflexologist I stay within the boundaries of my qualifications and skill set, therefore at times I may suggest a client may benefit from exploring additional therapies also – for example that might look like talking therapies, pilates or yoga, or a physiotherapist – it could be any number of therapy types that could add to the client's wellness.
Working with reflexology is a continuous gift as I see the positive changes it brings to so many people on all levels; whether emotional, mental or physical. And working with my clients is an ongoing rewarding experience; as I meet such lovely people and I am able to work in such a beneficial way.
At the beginning and end of the reflexology sequence we synchronise our breath, breathing in and out, mindfully, three times. These important breaths allow us both to acknowledge that, at the beginning, we are entering the treatment, and at the end we are closing the treatment and that we will re-enter our everyday life. The synchronisation of the breathing also unites us within the working space, within the goal of wellness, and activates the positive intention.
For those of you living in our lovely West Cornwall, whether in Penzance where I am based at the Penzance Natural Health Centre, or if you are living in surrounding areas such as Newlyn, Mousehole, Gulval, Marazion, Hayle, St Ives, St Just - and any other place nearby - then book in a restorative session with me! Come be nurtured, relax on the therapy couch and enjoy a Reflexology, enjoy deep rest in the Earthing & Balancing treatment, achieve detox and reset with a Reflexology Lymph Drainage, or have a luxuriously organic Ayurvedic Facial.
Autumn, winter, spring, summer – may we all be Well Beings 💚
