You’ll sit or lie comfortably while the therapist assesses feet, then applies targeted pressure to reflex points. Sessions are relaxing and non-invasive; you may feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Discuss health concerns beforehand to tailor the treatment safely.

Reflexology is generally safe when performed by a trained therapist, but certain conditions like blood clots, severe circulatory problems, or infectious foot disorders require caution. Always disclose medical history and medications; your therapist will adapt or recommend medical clearance as needed.

Frequency depends on goals: for acute relief, weekly sessions for several weeks may help; maintenance can be monthly. Your therapist will suggest a personalized plan based on symptoms, response to treatment, and overall health to achieve sustainable benefits.

Many clients report reduced stress and improved sleep after reflexology, likely due to relaxation and nervous system modulation. While not a replacement for mental health care, it can complement therapies and support better sleep patterns when combined with good sleep hygiene and medical advice.

Most people find reflexology pleasant and relaxing. You might feel occasional pressure or brief tenderness when sensitive reflex points are worked. Communicate with your therapist; they’ll adjust pressure. Any soreness usually subsides within a day or two and indicates circulation changes.

Wear comfortable clothing and arrive with clean, dry feet. Avoid heavy meals or alcohol beforehand. Bring a list of medications and health issues. Hydration after the session helps the body's response. Communicate pregnancy or recent surgeries so the therapist can modify techniques.
