Reflexology Edmonton

Edmonton | Sherwood Park

Reflexology works with the pressure points in your feet, hands, and head. The therapist applies pressure to these extremities, this sends a soothing message from the peripheral nerves to the central nervous system. The body is instructed to adjust tension levels which in turn will increase blood supply, help internal organs function optimally and enhance overall relaxation. The effects can be found throughout the circulatory, respiratory, endocrine, immune, and neuropeptide systems of the body.

What to expect during your Reflexology appointment:

If you want to relax, relieve stress, improve circulation, and promote overall wellness, Reflexology is the right service for you.

Your treatment will begin with a short assessment. Your massage therapist will go over your health history and any issues you want to address. You will not need to undress so be sure to wear loose fitting, comfortable clothing.

Your therapist will use light to medium pressure on your feet, hands, scalp, ears, and face. This stimulates the peripheral nerves in the central nervous system pathways. This treatment has an extremely calming effect.

If your purpose is solely for relaxation, your therapist will focus on delivering a flowing massage with steady pressure throughout your body. You may be asked to breathe deeply, which can help promote relaxation and increase the effectiveness of the massage. Your therapist may also use aromatherapy or other relaxation techniques to help enhance the experience.

After the treatment, you may feel relaxed and rejuvenated. It’s important to drink plenty of water to help flush out any toxins that were released during the massage. Your therapist may also provide you with some aftercare advice, such as remedial exercises, stretching or self-massage techniques to help facilitate your rehabilitation and progress. A return date for your treatment plan will also be suggested to keep you on track.

Other things you should know about your Reflexology appointment:

If you’re planning on getting Reflexology, here are some important things to keep in mind:

  1. Arrive early: It’s a good idea to arrive a few minutes early to your appointment. This will give you time to fill out any necessary paperwork and get settled in before your treatment begins.
  2. Avoid heavy meals: A full stomach can make it harder for you to relax and may interfere with the treatment. However, an empty stomach can leave you light headed. Try to eat a light meal an hour or two before your appointment.
  3. Drink plenty of water: It’s important to stay hydrated before and after your treatment. Drinking plenty of water can help flush out any toxins released and help prevent soreness.
  4. Dress appropriately: Depending on the type of treatment you have scheduled, you may or may not need to undress to some extent. It’s best to wear loose fitting or “athletic” clothing that you are able to move freely in. Your therapist will instruct you on what should be removed to facilitate the best possible treatment. Always undress to your personal comfort level.
  5. Communicate with your therapist: During your appointment, make sure to keep an open dialogue regarding any discomfort or areas of tension you are experiencing. This will help them make adjustments as needed to ensure that you are getting the most benefit from your treatment.
  6. Take it easy after your appointment: It is important to give your body time to rest and recover after treatment. Avoid intense physical activity or exercise immediately after your treatment and allow your body time to relax and recover.
  7. Follow any post-treatment instructions: Your therapist may provide you with specific instructions or stretches to do after the treatment to help with recovery. It is important to follow these instructions to get the greatest overall benefit.
