Reflexology is based on the principle that certain points on the feet and hands, called reflex points, correspond to different parts of the body.
Applying pressure to these specific points can help release tensions and aid the body’s natural healing processes.
Research carried out at Derriford Hospital in Plymouth showed that reflexology has proved to be successful in treating PMS, heavy periods, irregular periods, low sex drive, unexplained infertility, hostile cervical mucus, polycystic ovaries and recurrent miscarriages. Patients reported feeling more positive, relaxed and having more regular cycles, and a good percentage went on to conceive successfully.
