School in Lake Macquarie

Wellness is a healthy balance of mind, body and spirit. Many people tell me that the feeling of wellbeing they experience after a session is definite and tangible - energy, inner strength , calmness - a sense of what was missing has returned. However, in seeking wellness we choose to become involved in a process that is proactive and preventative and designed to achieve optimum levels of health and wellbeing, no matter what life throws at us. I offer my training, skills and over 20 years of therapeutic experience to you in the knowledge that both therapies that i practise - reflexology and journey work - are extremely effective, either on their own or in combination, and can make a real and sustained difference to your health and wellbeing. It may not necessarily involve perfect health, as much as we would like that - each one of us has our own challenges in life. Please contact journey to wellness to make an appointment either in turramurra or nords wharf, or phone to discuss your situation on 02 4976 3881.

Reflexology is a science based on the principle that reflex areas in the feet, hands and ears relate to the internal organs and other structures of the body. In reflexology pressure is applied to these reflex areas to bring health and balance to the body through the stimulation of its own inherent healing capacity. Reflexology is known for its ability to quickly relieve stress, harmonies the body and enlarge immunity all increasingly imperative factors for people in all phases of life. Good results relating to pain relief, muscle relaxation, improved digestive processes, improved circulation and lymphatic flow can be obtained very quickly. This makes reflexology an ideal complement to massage and other tactile therapies as healthy as nursing. It is one of the scanty instinctive therapies to be adopted by the nursing profession, and is old increasingly in palliative care, midwifery and aged care. Basic reflexology techniques can be old by anyone at home to support balance, diminish stress and manage pain. Responds by a slowing of nerve velocity thereby calming the whole body.

Caring, nurturing touch is something we all crave. Touch applied via the feet and hands is particularly healthy received as it is noninvasive and requires the recipient to unfasten only their shoes and socks. Reflexology reduces flustered tension and calms overactive adrenal glands. Danish studies have reported that recipients feel a much greater sense of well being and cope better with stress. Reflexology reduces pain, promotes the elimination of toxins and helps activate and balance all body systems. Reflexology is impaired more and more in nursing homes with excellent results Ag: pain relief, calming of agitated patients, improved bowel function etc. Teething problems, bed wetting, colic, constipation and restlessness are just a few usual problems which respond well to reflexology. Reflexology is impaired by many midwives and is a incredible way to promote a woman through pregnancy and labor. The treatment is unique in its combination of ancient alternative therapies: Chinese energy meridians and acupuncture points, Vietnamese and Andean tribal body maps, with modern neuroanatomy. The victory and effectiveness of Facial Reflexology lies in its aptitude to identify the root cause of health imbalances and its ability to stimulate a healing process within the individual using the balancing properties of the overhead three disciplines.
