I might get some sleep and then I might not

snap at my children so much etc.!! Anyone tried it?

I think you have to be very careful about using reflexology in early pregnancy

because it can induce miscarriage.

Well......Can't claim that it will def stop you snapping but it

should make you a lot less snappy (IYSWIM!) Very good for de-

stressing, just generally chilling you out - in fact I have fallen

asleep in several reflexology sessions. Did wonders for my IBS and

dodgy guts, and I say never fails to shift (exscuse the pun)

constipation etc

Whoever mentioned early pregnancy - there are certain points that

should be avoided when in early stages (mainly around ankle and

across top of foot) but any reflexolgist worth their salt would know

this. If you are just practising on each other then even rubbing

each foot would be relaxing enough and might get the desired results

without effecting the little one (please realise I am speaking as a

lay person who just had a great interest in the subject, used it many

times, and would love to train! - also I have read loads and have

lots of books)

If you are looking for a reflexolgist locally then I would certainly

look for one trained by British School of Reflexology or Reflexology

Association for UK. I also believe that there is an Institute of

Complementary Medicine in SE16 (Surrey Quays) that would point you in

right direction.

HTH! - it certainly did me as I have 2 reflexology babies - well it

must have had some contributory factor in it (unfortunately cannot

help with todays problems - but what the heck I've got 2 more kiddies

than I ever imagined!)
