What happens during my treatment?

When you book a Reflexology treatment at the Riverside Natural Health Centre in Nottingham, the reflexologist will begin with a consultation. This helps the reflexologist gauge whether the treatment is suitable for you and enables them to create a personalised reflexology treatment plan. Occasionally your GP’s permission may be needed as a precaution before treatments can begin, especially if you have diabetes.

Each reflexology treatment lasts about an hour. It’s just your feet that are normally worked on although your hands also replicate areas of your body so they can be worked on instead of your feet if you prefer.

You remain fully clothed, you just need to remove your footwear. Don’t worry about the look or smell of your feet Nottingham reflexologists love all types of feet!

Our Reflexologists

Suzanne is a holistic practitioner that specialises in relieving stress and tension in the body with her multifaceted approach to wellness. Sessions with Suzanne are a relaxing delight aimed at making you feel as comfortable and distressed as possible.

Martin 

Martin is a little bit firmer with his treatment approach and takes a very intuitive approach to how he works mixing in some traditional western styles with various other approaches too. His aim is to give everyone a relaxing and therapeutic session that is unique

James

James gives a deeper approach to his treatment and bases his approach on the principles of TCM and biomechanics too. His main idea of practice is that when people have illness or injury their posture and centre of balance will change. As peoples feet always stay flat on the floor, when the weight distribution above changes slightly it will have big impacts on the feet causing tension to form in various parts.
