Reflexology Aftercare Advice
Please read before your reflexology treatment
Following a reflexology treatment a healing response can sometimes be experienced. You may notice that you feel more tired or that some of your symptoms increase initially. For example, you may find that you need to go to the toilet more often, have a headache or feel more emotional. These are normal signs that the body has responded to the treatment and toxins are being released, they should pass within 24 to 48 hours of your treatment.
Taking the following steps in the days after your treatment can help to maximise the effects of your treatment and support your body with self-healing and addressing areas of imbalance::
-
drink plenty of water to help flush out waste products and toxins from the body
-
make time for as much rest as you can
-
give high impact exercise a miss, choose gentle movement instead
-
avoid drinking stimulants such as tea and coffee
-
do not drink alcohol
-
eat healthily and include a good balance and variety of fresh fruit and vegetables, ideally have a lighter meal initially to support digestion.
