Reflexology is a complementary therapy and a type of massage that involves different amounts of pressure to the feet (also sometimes hands and ears). It’s based on a theory that these points on your feet are connected to different parts of your body. It is believed that working these points or areas aids relaxation and helps improve wellbeing.
Reflexology is commonly used to assist with ailments and body issues such as:
- enabling the body to bring itself back into balance
- relieve stress
- improve immunity
- reduce pain
- improve circulation
- improve nutrition of cells
- promote removal of waste products
Research specifically around the use of reflexology in pregnancy suggests:
- significantly reduced pain during labour and reduced length of the first stage of labour
- improved quality of sleep for postpartum women
- women who experienced low back and/or pelvic girdle pain during their pregnancy significantly reduced the pushing stage of labour
- reduced pain and stress levels for women with low back or pelvic girdle pain
- found to have a positive effect in lowering the total anxiety scores of women in labour
