Maternity Reflexology for Expectant Mothers
Putting your feet up is always a treat. And never more so than when pregnant, especially if your tootsies are being experting massaged by a specially trained therapist.
Maternity reflexology can be a little slice of pampering heaven — or so say expectant mothers-to-be.
What makes it even better is that this therapy is endorsed by maternity hospitals including the National Maternity Hospital in Dublin’s Holles St as the evidence mounts of its benefits, especially in labour.
It is said to encourage the body’s innate ability to restore a healthy balance during this challenging and changing time for your body.
For those unfamiliar with reflexology, it is an ancient treatment based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet, hands and ears corresponding to every organ and part of the body, and that by applying pressure to these reflexes, specific bodily functions and organs are stimulated.
