Reflexology for Children
Children and teenagers can be prone to feeling stressed.
The Association of Reflexologists explain there is so much going on in their bodies and minds due to the physical, emotional and cognitive development, that children can sometimes find it difficult to verbalise what is wrong and stress can show up as changes in their normal behaviours.
For example, trouble sleeping or waking in the night, thumb sucking, nail biting or chewing hair, becoming clingy, withdrawn, sad or angry or suffering with frequent ailments.
Reflexology can help reduce anxiety and can be a fun treatment for children and young adults.
Children and Teens Reflexology
Treatment Recommendations
​
I would recommend a 30 minute Foot Reflexology treatment for primary school aged children, and a 60 minute treatment for senior school aged children.
Teens in particular tend to benefit from Facial Reflexology, which can help with skin breakouts as I include a mini-facial within the treatment.
Facial Reflexology also immediately engages the parasympathetic nervous system which allows stressed-out teens to slip into a very deep, almost hypnotic state of relaxation.
Reflexology is a perfect way to alleviate pre GCSE and A Level stress, leading to a calmer family environment for everyone to enjoy.
