Over the week I have been drawn to go back to basics. Reiki was the first therapy I was drawn to and I was prompted to go back to the beginning and embrace the roots from which everything has sprung. I found my manuals and I have read the book that I have about 20 years. Thank you for your recent very honest video which struck a cord and I totally agree with you.

I think we expect people to recover from loss or trauma far too quickly. We need time to process

We often talk about how reflexology feels - calming, grounding, restorative.
But what’s happening underneath that?

A double-blind randomised controlled trial (the gold standard in research) looked at what happens in the body during a reflexology session.

Researchers measured real-time cardiovascular responses in healthy volunteers and found:
✔️ Immediate changes in haemodynamics (how blood flows through the body)
✔️ A measurable effect on cardiac function, specifically the cardiac index
✔️ Effects observed during targeted reflexology on foot areas linked to the heart

In simple terms?
This wasn’t just “feeling relaxed” — the body showed objective, physiological changes in real time.

It’s a powerful reminder that touch therapies like reflexology can have measurable impacts beyond relaxation alone.
