Your first visit

Initial Appointment

The first time you come we take ninety minutes rather than sixty. The extra half hour is not extra treatment. It is time to sit down and talk properly before anything starts.

We go through how you have been feeling, anything sore, any injuries or health conditions, and anything you would rather I left alone. Then you get comfortable and the treatment runs the same as any other.

What reflexology actually is

Steady, even pressure applied to points across your feet. You stay dressed the whole time. Only your shoes and socks come off, and you sit back or lie down under a blanket.

What it feels like

Firm but not sharp. Some points feel tender for a second and then ease off, a bit like pressing a knot in your shoulder. Nothing about it should make you brace or hold your breath. If it does, say so and I lighten up right away.

Most people go very quiet after the first few minutes. A lot of people fall asleep. Both are fine.

Who tends to book this

• People who are on their feet all day and feel it by the evening
• People who find it hard to switch off and want an hour with no phone and no talking
• People who like the idea of a treatment but do not want to undress for one
• People who have never had any kind of bodywork and want to start somewhere gentle

Being straight with you

Reflexology is comfort and relaxation care. It is not medical treatment and it does not replace advice from your doctor. What I can honestly promise is a calm ninety minutes and careful attention. Anything beyond that is up to how your body responds.

Every visit after the first

Follow-Up Treatment

An hour, and we go straight into it. I already know your history from the first visit, so there is no long chat at the start unless something has changed.

I will ask how you have been since last time and whether anything new has cropped up. That takes a minute or two. Then shoes and socks off, and the rest of the hour is yours.

How often

As often as it is useful to you and no more. Some people come once a month. Some come when they think of it. Some come once and never again, and that is a completely fine outcome.

I do not sell courses of treatment and I will not ask you to rebook on your way out. If you want another one, you know where I am.

Who tends to book this

• Anyone who has already had an Initial Appointment
• People who found the first one helped and want to keep it going
• People who want a standing hour in the month that belongs to them

Something shorter

Massage

[[NEEDS: what kind of massage this is. Relaxation, deep tissue, chair, table, hands and feet only? This changes the whole description below.]]

Half an hour. It is a good choice if you are sore in one particular spot, or if you want to try something here without booking a full appointment first.

What to expect

We talk for a couple of minutes about where you are sore and anything you would rather I left alone. Then you get comfortable and I work on that area for the rest of the time. Pressure is yours to set. Tell me lighter or firmer at any point.

Who tends to book this

• People with one stubborn sore spot rather than a general ache
• People fitting something into a lunch break
• People who want the shortest, cheapest way to try this out
