Reflexology is a holistic therapy and embraces every facet of our existence, emotionally and physically. Most people experience a deep sense of relaxation or may feel re-energised, its effects vary from person to person.
Occasionally you may feel some short-term negative effects. This might happen as a response to the treatment, when your body takes a while to come back into balance. This is nothing to be alarmed about. You might experience:
• Increased need to go to the loo
• Tiredness, headache or dizziness
• Change in sleep patterns
• Mild nausea
• Temporary worsening of other symptoms
• Emotional changes
• Cold like symptoms
• Sensations in parts of the body where we have worked on your reflexes
This is called a healing reaction. It may clear up in the next few hours, or in some cases, might last 24-48 hours as the body balances itself.
