Pregnancy reflexology – why it is so beneficial for you and your baby
There is very little that cannot be addressed with a wonderfully relaxing reflexology treatment. Reflexology creates balance and a ‘feel good vibe’ in the whole person. Also as it is a holistic therapy, clients often report additional improvements in areas they had not come in to be treated for.
Reflexology literally allows you to put your (possibly swollen!) feet up and switch off. Some mothers dose off, others drift off into a wonderfully relaxed state which goes on to last the whole day.
With pregnancy reflexology both mother and baby benefit – so you are effectively getting a two-for-one treatment 🙂

• Back ache
