Reflexology is an ancient practice that was developed and used by many cultures across the globe including the Egyptians, Chinese and Vietnamese. It is a gentle, non-invasive technique of activating reflexes in the feet that affect the body’s organs, glands and parts to help to improve overall health, naturally. Modern reflexology is becoming increasingly popular as a holistic treatment for many issues and conditions.

When it comes to our children, we want the best for them and often go to great lengths to raise them in the safest and most natural way. I know I’ll buy my toddler the organic brand and skimp on my own or take hours researching the best product options because heaven forbid we make a "wrong decision" - #firstchildproblems  ;)

What if I told you there was a natural & effective way to combat common baby ailments, right at home? Foot reflexology is a great technique to relieve common baby ailments, whether you use it alone or in conjunction with other traditional treatments.

Babies and children are especially receptive to the effects of reflexology since their feet are so “new” and the skin, ligaments, bones, nerves and arches have yet to develop fully. There are less physical and energetic blockages in the feet so activating the reflexes becomes easier and the effects are faster and more specific!

In addition, infant & baby reflexology;
·         Is nurturing & helps enhance connection between caregiver and child
·         reduces stress
·         calms & soothes
·         activates the self healing mechanism
·         balances hormones leading to greater health of all the body systems
·         detoxifies the body
·         feels great and is fun for the caregiver

​Reflexology is also safe, doesn’t have any unpleasant side effects and can be used as a preventative and maintenance tool – for example, combining it with your bath or bedtime routine!

If you’re a parent who would like to try using reflexology for your little one, I have developed a simple to follow, Online Baby & Me Reflexology Workshop where I show you how to activate the foot reflexes to bring about relief for 5 common baby ailments including Teething, Sinus & Congestion, Gas & Constipation (Digestive Upset), Sleep & Relaxation and Skin Conditions.

Moms have been super happy with the results, especially as they’ve seen a doubling or more in length of nap times after a session.
“I was very pleased with all the different techniques to use for various common baby ailments. My son is not a very good sleeper and much to my surprise after this workshop he surpassed his usual 45 min nap and slept for 2.5 hours!!! I also practiced the calming reflexology points before bedtime because he can get quite grumpy at the end of the day, and he was extremely calm afterwards. I highly recommend this workshop! Thank you so much Suzanne!”

Do you suffer from PMS, reproductive issues, infertility, headaches, trouble sleeping, anxiety/depression, trouble losing weight or fatigue? You may be fighting against hormonal imbalance.

Created via glands in the endocrine system, hormones are specific chemical messengers that stimulate different cells or tissues into action. Almost all of your bodily functions are controlled and regulated by the release of hormones, including your sleep patterns, digestion & blood sugar levels, reproduction, libido & fertility, metabolism, immunity, growth, mental state & mood, level of stress, energy and heart rate.

​When these hormones shift out of balance because, let's face it #lifehappens, for example poor eating habits, lack of exercise, lack of sleep and mental and physical stress both environmental and from within, the body is not able to function normally or optimally. Overtime, this leads to sickness, injury and disease. #totalbummer!

​Women are especially "lucky" in the hormonal department (#saidnooneever) throughout all life stages including pregnancy and post partum which bring about major shifts to your hormones that aren't always easy to correct or bounce back from. I've personally dealt with PMS, weight gain, and most recently, fatigue and post partum depression (PPD) after the birth of my daughter. Leading a healthy lifestyle can help correct imbalances, but often we need some extra help.

Reflexology to the rescue!! Reflexology has a resetting and balancing effect on hormonal levels, allowing your system to work at it's best again. Through specialized techniques and manipulation of reflex points found on the soles of the feet, glands, parts and organs of the body are triggered into natural self healing, repair and homeostasis. BONUS! Reflexology simultaneously removes toxins, promotes a deep state of relaxation and increases wellbeing while remaining non-invasive and void of ANY negative side effects! #winning!  This makes reflexology a perfect treatment for any age.

If you think you’re experiencing hormonal imbalance and are interested in experiencing the powerful, whole body healing effects of reflexology, I'd be happy to help you!​
