#Colour Therapy

Your choice of colour and the colours you don't choose reflect the balance of energy within your body.
In a similar way to being unable to not communicate you cannot not choose a colour.  Colour can be used to help aid the healing process within your body and has been used successfully in burns units for instance where blue walls have been shown to speed up the recovery rate of severly burned children.

Imbalances in your body energies can result in your feeling not quite right but without there being anything consciously wrong and sometimes that is an inability to funcation to your maximum potential with one energy area of your life.

Colour therapy uses you choices of colour to aid the process followed by a period of energy therapy which might include light, coloured material or crystals.  The aim being to give you the option to take a more balanced approach to approaches to life.

#Reflexology

or zone therapy, is the practice of massaging, squeezing, or pushing on parts of the feet, or sometimes the hands and ears, with the goal of encouraging a beneficial effect on other parts of the body, or to improve general health.

It is believed that that areas on the foot correspond to areas of the body, and that by manipulating these one can improve health.  It is also believed that  these zones reflect energy (Qi), and that blockages of energy in the body are reflected through "grit" or "lumps" on the foot.

A clinical reflexologist can often tell, simply by the conidtion of your feet where you may have problem in your body and it is not unusual to hear 'Have you got a problem with your right shoulder?' for instance.
Our reflexologist is Sam Holt
