How Reflexology may Improve your Sleep
It’s a fact; we all need a good nights sleep and you will regularly hear me say “Sleep is the best remedy”.
Sleep patterns can be disrupted for many reasons including stress, depression, side effects of medication, pain or indigestion.
Lack of sleep can lead to weight gain, poor concentration, greater risk of heart disease and stroke, hormone imbalances, mood swings and depression.
How Can Reflexology Help?
Reflexology is a deeply relaxing, non-invasive therapy.
The treatments aim to reduce symptoms of physical and emotional stress which can manifest in many ways. A full treatment may release stress, anxiety and tension. This in turn may boost your energy levels. Treating yourself to regular Reflexology aims to promote good health, emotional wellbeing and vitality.
Most importantly, Reflexology is a therapy that ANYONE can enjoy.
Benefits of Reflexology:

Stimulating points including the spine, especially the neck and shoulders, the diaphragm and lungs. Hormone reflexes including pituitary, hypothalamus, adrenals and then the solar plexus, all help to aid a better nights sleep.
