Reflexology is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that can offer comfort, relief, and emotional support to individuals living with chronic and life-limiting illnesses. By applying specific techniques to reflex points on the feet, hands, or face—points believed to correspond with different organs and systems of the body—reflexology aims to promote balance, reduce stress, and enhance wellbeing.

​

Reflexology is not a cure, but it can be a valuable complementary approach that supports quality of life. Many clients report experiencing deep relaxation, reduced anxiety, and temporary relief from symptoms such as pain, fatigue, and digestive discomfort.

​

A growing body of evidence supports the benefits of reflexology in palliative and chronic care settings. A study published in the European Journal of Oncology Nursing found that reflexology significantly reduced pain and anxiety in patients with advanced-stage cancer (Stephenson et al., 2000). Another review concluded that reflexology may positively influence psychological wellbeing and improve sleep and quality of life in people with chronic health conditions (McCullough et al., 2014).

Take a look at the Cancer Research website to find out more about why someone living with cancer may use reflexology as a complementary therapy.

​

Importantly, reflexology offers a moment of connection and care, providing holistic support that honours the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of each person. Sessions are always tailored to individual needs, with sensitivity and compassion at the heart of every treatment.​
