What is Reflexology?

Reflexology is a gentle, holistic therapy that supports deep relaxation and overall wellbeing. It’s based on the principle that each part of the body and its intrinsic systems are connected to specific reflex points on the feet. As a qualified Reflexologist, I focus on those reflex points to rebalance, ease tension, and create space for your mind and body to unwind.

How Reflexology Helps

• Encourages deep relaxation

• Helps reduce stress - a key factor in maintaining good health

• Offers dedicated one to one time in a calm, supportive environment

• Complements standard healthcare and can be used alongside medical treatments

• A holistic approach that considers both physical and nonphysical factors affecting wellbeing.

About your practitioner

Hi, I’m Ellie your Reflexology Practitioner.

My interest in Reflexology began at an early age. I suffered many debilitating migraines as a child in the 80s. No conventional medication helped, however my father would instinctively hold my feet to calm me during the worst attacks and placed pressure on my big toe and this would almost immediately relieve the tension in my head and my auras would calm. I knew this wasn’t just coincidence as it would happen time and time again.

In my teenage years I started to read various literature by Dr. William Fitzgerald and Eunice Ingham relating to holistic therapies and their findings on Reflexology and I became hooked.

Whilst travelling the world for several years in the late 90s/ early 2000s I experienced Reflexology with various practitioners and gained an even deeper understanding of its origins and techniques. On my return to the UK in 2003 I decided to study the practice of this amazing and deeply relaxing therapy.

In 2005, I gained my Diploma in Reflexology with The Association of Reflexologists and became a Member of the AoR, secured my therapists insurance and began to treat many clients at their homes across the Southeast of England.

Over the next 15 years my client base naturally grew, and I had a unique bond with many of my regular clients. I developed more of an interest in Reflexology for Fertility and Reflexology alongside Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy and saw first hand the amazing benefits this was able to offer my clients during these often very challenging times of their lives.

In 2021 I moved with my family to Speyside. My focus became more on establishing a healthy and happy family home in our new surroundings, rewilding areas of our land, setting up a small holding whilst continuing to run my interior design business. However, Reflexology has continued to be very much a part of my life, often treating my family and friends whenever needed.

Reflexology is a part of who I am.

I am so fortunate that Liz, Owner at the Speyside Spa, has offered me this opportunity to reconnect my healing hands with new clients in our community..

Ellie’s Reflexology will now be available to book in the Speyside Spa on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday morning.

So why not come along and experience this wonderfully holistic and deeply relaxing therapy for yourself, I assure you, you are worth it!

What to expect

Your first treatment will include a brief consultation to establish any specific health issues and concerns and allows us time to complete your patient health form. This enables me to tailor s personal treatment and to introduce you to the practice of Reflexology if you haven’t experienced it before.

You will be asked to remove your shoes and socks as I make sure you are comfortable and warm on our massage bed. Ambient lighting, music and the subtle aroma of relaxing essential oils enhance your full experience.

We start with a very calming foot massage to ground, connect and slow your mind and body down. Using some breath work, you should allow yourself this time to let go of any tension and stress.

The reflexology treatment will then commence; working each reflex point on each foot, applying various pressures and techniques to stimulate or relax tension.

Towards the end of your treatment, you will experience another slow and relaxing massage of both feet, simultaneously, realigning and rebalancing.

Once I have slowly released your feet I will take notes, giving you time to gently stir from a state of deep relaxation and softly awaken your mind and body.

We can discuss your treatment and any aftercare before you leave.
