Reflexology can help to regulate hormones, improve circulation to the reproductive system and reduce stress within the body. This can help to create a more balanced environment for conception.

By working on key reflex points, reflexology can support your body’s natural fertility and overall emotional wellbeing.

Please know that reflexology cannot guarantee pregnancy, as it is not a direct treatment for infertility. However, it can offer supportive benefits that may enhance overall reproductive health and improve the chances of conception.

Many individuals undergoing IVF or other fertility treatments use reflexology as a complementary therapy.

Reflexology helps reduce stress, promote relaxation, and enhance wellbeing during these emotionally and physically demanding fertility treatments.

During pregnancy, reflexology provides relief from common discomforts such as back pain, swelling and hormonal imbalances. It promotes deep relaxation and emotional balance, helping you feel more centered and supported as your body changes.

A tailored approach to your reflexology treatment will be adapted to suit your specific needs.

Please be aware that reflexology treatments aren’t advised during the first trimester. 

Reflexology can be a beneficial complementary therapy for natural induction of labour, particularly as the due date approaches or passes. By targeting specific reflex points on the feet, hands, and face that correspond to the uterus and cervix, reflexology stimulates these areas to encourage the body to initiate labour naturally.

Additionally, it promotes deep relaxation, which can alleviate anxiety and stress that may hinder labour onset. By balancing hormones, particularly oxytocin, and improving circulation, reflexology helps the body prepare for labour.

Reflexology may also promote cervical ripening, which is essential for the onset of contractions, and aids in lymphatic drainage to improve overall body function. 

Don’t overlook the 4th trimester! Reflexology can also be highly beneficial for postnatal recovery.

After birth, reflexology aids in recovery by helping restore balance, support healing, and promote emotional wellbeing. It can also help with common postpartum concerns such as sleep disturbances, hormonal shifts and physical recovery, allowing you to nurture both yourself and your baby with greater ease.
