CLINICAL REFLEXOLOGY and COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES
Complementary Therapy services are provided at The Treatment Space in my home in South Shields.
Reflexology may be offered as a mobile service across South Tyneside, East Gateshead and north of the Wear in Sunderland on an individual basis, depending on circumstances.
CLINICAL REFLEXOLOGY
An ancient technique using pressure points on the feet, hands or face to promote well-being, release tension, improve mood and aid with sleep. Reflexology is non-invasive, promoting relaxation. Each treatment is tailored to your individual concerns. Specialist techniques available for menopause, mental health and palliative care.
Using techniques developed by Ziggie Bergman, this facial reflexology session supports lymph drainage and circulation, relaxes muscles, rejuvenates skin, eases tension and encourage balance throughout the body. It will leave you feeling calm, with a general sense of well-being. A gentle yet powerful facial treatment, this truly delicious therapy is a must for anyone’s treatment wish list.
This method of reflexology has been researched and developed by creator Sally Kay. It is recognised world-wide as a treatment for lymphatic drainage. and a valid alternative to manual lymph drainage. Originally developed to support breast cancer survivors with lymphodema, it may also be helpful in the treatment of menopausal issues, auto-immune disorders, fibromyalgia, ME and other chronic illnesses.
HOLISTIC FACIAL
Your holistic facial starts by choosing the plant-based and organic Tropic Skincare products which meet the needs of your skin to gently cleanse, tone and hydrate. While you luxuriate with a face mask, enjoy a mini reflexology treatment of either the hands or feet. Finish off with a relaxing and releasing neck and shoulder massage using the Balineze techniques, facial reflexology and massage.
THAI HAND AND FOOT MASSAGE
A non-invasive therapy and originating in Thailand almost 2500 years ago, this therapy uses pressure points along meridians and zones of the body. Pressure and massage on specific points along these lines of the feet, lower legs, hands and arms encourages energy flow, improves well-being, promotes balance and releases tension.
PARAFFIN WAX TREATMENT
Parafffin Wax has been used for many years to relieve pain and stiffness in the joints of the hands and feet. This treatment starts with cleansing, exfoliation and massage followed by a warm wax application. The warmth is left to penetrate joints and muscles to relax and ease tension. After the wax gently slips away, an application of moisturizer and finishing massage leaves the skin soft and supple.
HOPI EAR CANDLING
Hopi ear candles are hollow tubes of organic cotton/flax and pure beeswax used to provide a warm and soothing sensation to release congestion and tension. The treatment starts with a mini holistic facial to cleanse and waken the face. After the candling has been completed, It is followed by a relaxing and calming Balinese neck and shoulder massage. Leave feeling relaxed, refreshed and revitalised.

Spotlight On:
Good Foot Care
Good foot care is quite simple:
- Keep feet clean and dry
- Wear socks that contin natural products (cotton, bamboo, wool, etc)
- Change socks daily or if they become damp
- File any dry or rough skin twice weekly with foot dresser/file
- When using a file, use gentle strokes in one direction on dry skin. Let the file do the work.
- Use moisturising cream daily, avoiding between the toes
- For particularly dry or calloused feet use cream containing 10-25% urea
- Any infections (ie fungal) should be attended to promptly. Speak with a pharmacist to get the best product for your needs.
- Expensive equipment is not necessary for healthy feet
- Make sure nails are trimmed
- Check with family members who may have difficulty attending to their foot care needs
- Contact a foot health care professional for advice and support
