Facial reflexology is an holistic treatment, introduced into the UK in 2003. It aims to identify the root cause of health imbalances and stimulate the body’s own self-healing abilities. Facial reflexology combines acupuncture, reflexology and neurology and stimulates organs through nerve endings via the central nervous system.

This unique treatment is profoundly relaxing as it promotes the release of endorphins and serotonin which calm the mind and aim to balance the Central Nervous System. During a treatment neuro-vascular points, reflex zones and neurological points are stimulated on the face using only the finger-tips which stimulate impulses through the central nervous system and meridians to the physical body and the major organs.

What happens at a treatment?

A full medical case history will be taken at your first appointment to establish any past medical conditions together with any current symptoms. An analysis of your lifestyle including diet and exercise will also be taken into account. An explanation of the treatment including the seven steps of the basic treatment will be given.

The treatment lasts between 45 and 50 minutes and covers the entire surface of the face except the eyelids. Rose hip seed oil from the South American Andes is used for moisturising and collagen production and rose otto essential oil for its uplifting scent, anti-depressant qualities and capillary toning.
