Why I'm Passionate About Menopausal Support
My own challenging menopause journey showed me how vital support is. I know firsthand the profound impact that hormones can have on our overall well-being, especially the challenges of menopause, which I've found incredibly difficult at times.
I had so many unanswered questions: Why are my hot flushes so intense? Why has my confidence dropped so much? I’m barely eating — so why am I gaining weight, particularly around my middle?
These questions were tough to answer, and there were many more. Everyone's menopause journey is unique; some sail through it, while others, like me, really struggle.
In my search for answers and after retraining as a reflexologist, I pursued further training to better understand how reflexology can support menopausal symptoms—both for myself and for others navigating this life transition.
With advanced training in reflexology for menopause, I’m committed to providing compassionate care that truly makes a difference. A holistic therapy that works with the body’s natural systems to help support you on your own unique journey.
Why Take The Holistic Approach?
Holistic therapy aims to enhance overall well-being by addressing not only physical symptoms but also the emotional, social, and spiritual dimensions of health.
This approach requires me to consider you as a whole person — body, mind, spirit — not just the immediate reason for seeking treatment. By gently asking questions related to lifestyle factors like stress and sleep patterns, I can gain a fuller understanding of you, enabling me to offer some suggestions that may help to extend the benefits of the treatment well beyond the session itself.
For those undergoing medical treatment for specific conditions, holistic therapy can serve as a valuable complement, providing supportive care alongside conventional medical approaches.
Just a note to say that as a therapist, I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions, and therapies are not a substitute for medical advice. My focus is on supporting your well-being through holistic and complementary therapies.
Why Choose Reflexology For Menopause
Reflexology can be beneficial if experiencing menopause due to its potential to support a range of physical and emotional shifts associated with hormonal changes.
Common symptoms include:
Hot flushes & night sweats Sudden waves of heat and sweating.
Fatigue & sleep issues Low energy and difficulty sleeping.
Headaches & dizziness Hormonal shifts can cause these.
Joint & muscle pain Stiffness or general discomfort.
Weight gain & digestion issues Metabolism shifts may cause bloating or weight gain
Dry skin & hair thinning Reduced collagen affects skin and hair health.
Mood swings & irritability Emotional ups and downs.
Anxiety & low mood Increased feelings of stress or sadness.
Brain fog & forgetfulness Difficulty concentrating or memory lapses.
Reflexology offers a nurturing and calming space, helping women feel more centred, supported, and at ease during menopause. This natural transition can bring a range of physical and emotional changes, and reflexology provides a gentle, holistic approach to supporting overall well-being during this time.
While menopause can sometimes feel overwhelming, therapies such as reflexology may help ease the journey. By stimulating specific reflex points on the feet, reflexology aims to support the endocrine system, which plays an important role in hormone balance.
Reflexology can also help to calm the nervous system, reducing stress and promoting deep relaxation—something many women find especially beneficial when experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, sleep disturbances, or mood changes.
As a non-invasive and natural therapy, reflexology may help support common menopausal symptoms including hot flushes, fatigue, and tension, while encouraging a greater sense of balance and wellbeing—without the side effects often associated with medication.
REFLEXOLOGY, INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE AND REIKI EXPLAINED
What Is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a non-invasive holistic therapy that uses gentle pressure on specific points on the feet, hands, or face. It is based on the theory that these reflex points correspond with different organs and systems in the body through nerve endings, meridians, and energy pathways. By stimulating these areas, reflexology promotes balance and harmony, helping the body activate its own healing abilities to encourage self-repair and restoration.
Areas it can often help with include:
Menopause - Stress - Anxiety - Headaches - Toxin Removal - Circulation - Tiredness - Relaxation - Digestion - Overall Wellbeing and more.
Imagine a deeply rejuvenating experience that goes beyond soothing tired feet—it revitalises your entire body. Reflexology is more than a foot massage; it’s a therapeutic practice that encourages relaxation, helps to reduce stress, and enhances circulation.
Reflexologists do not claim to cure, diagnose or prescribe. It is not a substitute for medical diagnosis..
A Brief History of Reflexology
With roots in ancient Egypt, India, and China, reflexology was introduced to the Western world in the early 1900s by Dr. William Fitzgerald. He developed "Zone Therapy," a technique suggesting that specific areas on the hands and feet correspond to various organs and body parts. Fitzgerald believed that by applying pressure to these zones, one could relieve pain and promote health.
In the 1930s, physiotherapist Eunice Ingham further developed reflexology by focusing specifically on the feet. She created detailed foot maps showing how different points on the feet relate to organs and systems throughout the body. Ingham’s work popularised reflexology, evolving it into the widely practiced and respected therapy known today.
What Is Indian Head Massage?
Indian Head Massage, or "Champissage," is an ancient Ayurvedic therapy that focuses on the upper back, shoulders, neck, head, and face.
This holistic massage incorporates various techniques, including petrissage (kneading and squeezing), tapotement (hacking and tapping), friction (rubbing and shampooing), and effleurage (stroking movements) that both invigorate and relax.
As a non-invasive massage therapy, Indian Head Massage helps stimulate the nerves, boosts circulation to relieve tired and tense muscles, and promotes the removal of toxins. By enhancing circulation and soothing muscles—particularly around the scalp—it fosters a deep sense of relaxation and overall well-being.
A Brief History of Indian Head Massage
Known as "Champissage," Indian Head Massage has its roots in Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine practiced for over 4,000 years. This traditional practice reflects Ayurveda’s holistic philosophy, which emphasises balance between body, mind, and spirit for optimal health. Indian Head Massage embodies this balance, using therapeutic touch to harmonise and restore vitality.
What Is Reiki?
Reiki is an alternative therapy that originated in Japan, combining two Japanese words: rei (universal) and ki (life force energy). This universal energy, which flows through all living things, is channelled by the Reiki practitioner to help promote balance and healing in the body, mind, and spirit. By encouraging a healthy flow of energy, Reiki aims to reduce stress and support the body’s natural healing processes.
As a Reiki practitioner, I have undergone a series of attunements from Reiki I through Reiki II, which open and refine the energy channels, allowing me to channel Reiki energy more effectively.
A Brief History of Reiki
Reiki, as it is known today, was developed by Mikao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist monk, in the 1920s. After a period of intense research and a 21-day meditation and fasting retreat on a holy mountain, Usui is said to have reached enlightenment and discovered an ability to ease pain through touch. This experience led to the development of the Reiki practice, which he began to teach and share, establishing the foundation of Reiki healing as practiced today.
