Welcome to the Vitality Centre in Wandsworth, Reflexology treatment.

Reflexology is a therapy in which pressure and specific massage techniques are applied to reflex points on the feet and hands. It is based on the principle that these reflex points correspond in their arrangement to the structure of the body and relate to the organs, glands and systems within.

Reflexology has roots in many cultures. The earliest recording of a therapy in the form of reflexology is found in an Egyptian tomb drawing, date 2330 BC.

Reflexology is a very relaxing and rewarding treatment suitable for people of all ages.

By accessing these reflex points reflexology may be able to:

•    Encourage the body towards self-healing
•    Maintain good health as a help towards preventing illness,
•    Assist with the elimination of toxins and impurities to help cleansing,
•    Revitalise energy,
•    Improve circulation.
•   Migraines & Headaches
•   Constipation
•   Menstrual Problems
•   Stress / Anxiety
•   Insomnia / Depression
•   Infertility Problems
•   Aches and Pains / Back Pain
•   Pregnancy Symptoms

•   Hormone Imbalance

ABOUT THE TREATMENT

Your first treatment will consist of a detailed consultation to understand your medical history and to provide insight into any present conditions. The course of treatment varies from person to person.

After the treatment a feeling of total relaxation and serenity is generally experienced as reflexology encourages the body’s energies to harmonize and flow more freely. It is normal if you experience very mild symptoms after the treatment. This is a healing reaction, which lasts for a very short time as the body is eliminating toxins.

Reflexology is available Mon-Sat at Vitality Centre, please call or email reception to check availability.

The role of the lymphatic system is vast and hugely important. The lymphatic system transports nutrients to cells and eliminates metabolic wastes, toxins and excess fluids from the body. MLD has a significant role with detoxifying the body and stimulating the vital immune defences. This is important with the busy lives we lead today and as our immune systems are continuously being challenged.

Congestion in the lymph system can result in:

•    Frequent colds
•    Persistent sinusitis, catarrh
•    Visible cellulite
•    Fluid retention e.g: puffy ankles, legs, eyes, bloating
•    Spotty skin

MLD can also help tone the skin and reduce puffiness around the eyes.

A series of treatments is recommended in conjunction with changes in diet, life style and most importantly with increasing the daily intake of water. Dehydration has a huge impact on the sluggishness of the lymphatic system.

Treatment Cost: £45 – 60mins
