I am Victoria Woods BA(Hons) MAR, a fully qualified and insured reflexologist based in South Norfolk. I am a full member of the Association of Reflexologists (AoR). I work from a cosy treatment room in Tacolneston, around 5 miles from Wymondham and Long Stratton, and around 15 minutes from South Norwich and Attleborough.
Reflexology is a non-invasive complementary health therapy, it is believed that our entire body systems and organs are mapped out on our feet and hands. By applying specific techniques and different pressure to these areas on the hands and feet, it helps the body return to a state of healthy balance. Find out more about how reflexology can support you below.....
Relaxation & Wellbeing
Reflexology can be highly effective in promoting relaxation and wellbeing; it has been shown in multiple studies to reduce stress and promote a deep sense of relaxation, which is key to reducing the effects of stress on the body and other associated health issues.
Sleep Disorders
There are many controlled studies and research that suggest that foot reflexology produces significant improvements in those with sleep issues. Reflexology was found to be an effective, non-invasive intervention. Regularly receiving reflexology is considered an effective therapy to improve the sleep quality of those with sleep issues such as insomnia and sleep-walking.
Babies & Children
Reflexology is a natural way to support your baby or child with a variety of ailments. I can also show you how to continue to help your little one yourself at home. Reflexology can support babies and children with, amongst other things, reflux, sleep issues, teething, colic, constipation, anxiety, trapped wind and tummy troubles.
Pain Relief
There have been many research studies that have demonstrated the beneficial effects of reflexology on pain levels. Reflexology has been shown to help those suffering many types of pain, including migraines, post-operative pain and period pain. Please see my Blog for details of studies on pain relief. I decided to learn reflexology after experiencing pain relief while awaiting a hip replacement, and I continue to have treatments myself to help with my endometriosis symptoms. I am very keen to help others in the same way.
Women's Health
By paying particular attention to the reflex points that link directly to the female reproductive system, reflexology can help support women with hormonal imbalances, regulate the menstrual cycle and reduce stress and anxiety as well as relieve pain and discomfort. It has been shown in studies that reflexology can help with pre-menstrual pain, and pain associated with conditions such as endometriosis and fibroids.
Fertility & Pregnancy
Reflexology can be a useful fertility boosting therapy when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and lifestyle. Apart from relaxation, it can also boost blood circulation, help balance hormone levels and regulate the menstrual cycle.
Reflexology is perfectly safe in pregnancy. Research has shown that reflexology in pregnancy can significantly reduce pain during labour, reduce the length of the first stage of labour and improve quality of sleep in post-natal women. It can also support you with other issues that arise during pregnancy.
Peri- Menopause
Reflexology can support those suffering from common peri- menopausal issues such as hot flushes, insomnia, mood swings, and anxiety. By promoting relaxation and enhancing circulation, reflexology may help balance hormone levels and reduce stress, offering a non-invasive way for women to manage the physical and emotional challenges of menopause. Reflexology is complementary and can be used alongside HRT and other medical treatments.
