What is a reflexology session like?
• A.A reflexology session is gentle and relaxing. It may last from 15 minutes to 1 hour, depending on your preference. You remove your shoes and (usually) socks, then sit or lie in a comfortable reclined position on a chair or table. Your feet may be wiped with a moist towelette. Reflex points in your feet will be stimulated with gentle thumb, finger, palm (or tool) pressure. A powder, cream or lotion may be applied to your feet during the session to provide smooth contact. You might experience some sensitivity depending on the level of tension in your tissues. The amount of pressure will be adjusted to your individual needs. You should communicate immediately if you feel any discomfort so that a different technique may be used. At the conclusion, your feet may be rubbed gently with a towel or cloth. After a session, many report they feel very relaxed and their feet seem lighter and more comfortable.
