Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Reflexology.

Your therapist will briefly consult about health history, then use targeted thumb and finger pressure on your feet. Sessions last 30–60 minutes, promote relaxation, and may produce tingling, warmth, or emotional release as circulation and energy pathways respond.

Reflexology can be safe for many pregnant clients after the first trimester with practitioner approval. We screen medical history and adapt technique; certain high-risk pregnancies or conditions may require clearance from your physician before treatment.

Frequency depends on goals: for acute concerns, weekly sessions for four to six weeks are common. For maintenance and stress management, monthly sessions often suffice. Your therapist will recommend a personalized plan based on response and health history.

Wear comfortable clothing and arrive with clean feet. Avoid heavy meals and excessive caffeine right before your appointment. Inform your therapist about medications, recent surgeries, or health concerns to ensure a safe, tailored treatment.

Mild pressure may feel intense at specific reflex points, but therapists adjust based on your comfort. Some tenderness or temporary soreness can occur after treatment; it's usually brief and signals circulation and release. Communicate openly to tailor pressure.

Many clients report reduction in headache frequency and intensity, and relief from chronic pain when reflexology is used alongside medical care. It supports nervous system balance and circulation, but results vary—combine with prescribed treatments and inform your healthcare provider.
