Reproflexology is a non-invasive, complementary therapy that works alongside conventional medicine and science to support people on their journey to create a family.
Reproflexology is for people who are:
Reproflexology treatments may be successful in treating both women and men at any stage of their journey to conception.

Treatments may also help men diagnosed with:
Reflexology is known to aid relaxation, release tension, and improve sleep leading to improved mood, lower stress levels and a greater sense of wellbeing. Many symptoms of illnesses or conditions are made worse by increased stress levels. Therefore, reducing stress levels with reflexology treatments can lead to clients feeling better able to cope with their symptoms and symptoms indirectly improving due to lowered stress levels.
Reproflexology can help support you through your fertility journey & reproductive health by:
Whether you are having difficulty conceiving naturally or going through IVF, IUI, ICSI, Reproflexology treatments can support you through your journey.
It can be an incredibly stressful and emotional time, and having experienced difficulty conceiving and miscarriages myself, supporting people through their conception journeys and beyond is something that is very close to my heart.
As a qualified level 5 Reflexology Practitioner, pre-conception and fertility treatments were covered as part of my core training.
I have also undertaken in-depth, post graduate training in Reproflexology TM with the incredible Barbara Scott, Founder of the Association of Reproductive Reflexologists & Seren Training and author of "Reflexology for Fertility" and am a full member of the Association of Reproductive Reflexologists.
Your journey with me will start with setting a date for an initial consultation, ideally with both parties (whether that be heterosexual or same sex couples) or as an individual.
You will be asked to complete a detailed pre-conception questionnaire prior to our first appointment.
At your initial consultation we will use the questionnaire as the foundation of our session. Discussing areas in more detail, as well as your lifestyle including diet and exercise and how things can impact on your fertility. This consultation usually lasts up to 90 minutes. There is no treatment at the first session, other than an assessment on both parties feet. We will discuss treatment planning and focus for your subsequent treatments and agree dates and times.
It is usually advised for women to chart their monthly cycles using Basal Body Temperature (BBT) and ovulation signs & symptoms. This will be discussed at your appointment. Through this tracking process we are able to identify what is happening through the monthly cycle and also see how reproflexology is impacting changes.
It is also helpful for you to bring any relevant medical test results to your appointment.
I wish I could tell you that a certain number of treatments would give you the success you are hoping for, but unfortunately, that is not possible. As a complementary therapy, results will vary from person to person and cannot be guaranteed.
It is common for clients to need at least one course of 6 treatments and it is beneficial to work with women for a minimum of 4 weekly treatments so that I can work with you through each stage of your menstrual cycle. Treatments for men can vary between 6-12 weeks.
At each stage, I will work with you as a couple or individual to plan treatments and make recommendations based on any budget and time limitations that may exist.
