Sunday Summer Special €60 for Reflexology/Reiki/Indian Head Masaage. Summertime can be marvellous but also can lead to looser routines, kids or your own bedtime shifting later, camp runs in between working or entertaining kiddos most of the day... never mind the snacks! Your body may need a little reset and Sunday mornings maybe just the right time for you. Appointments on Sundays at 10 or 11 a.m. for the month of July are €60 and with receipts for health insurance (for reflexology) it may work out cheaper. Do yourself and your nervous system a wee favour and get a Sunday reset.

Mothers! We deserve to be seen, heard and acknowledged and so often we are not. Asking for help in whatever form is not a negative thing. That is not what I believed after having my 1st when I couldn't cope and cried for months and was blinded by postnatal depression. I try to be open and honest in my classes and in my treatment room so other new m**s know this can happen. There is help out there and so much more supports then before so let's continue the honest conversations. Let's be better together and know most of us do not have our s**t together 🙃 and we can all struggle day by day, hour by hour but if the struggle seems overwhelming and never stopping, please please reach out visit motherhood.ie
Go gently- you deserve it Mama

We often think of blood pressure support in terms of medication, diet, and exercise, and rightly so. But this study looked at something a little different: foot reflexology as an add-on.

In a randomized clinical trial led by Kotruchin et al., adults with stage 2 hypertension received a short, targeted reflexology treatment alongside their usual care.

What they found?
👉 A measurable reduction in blood pressure
👉 A decrease in heart rate
👉 Effects seen within just 30 minutes

This wasn’t a replacement for medical treatment, but it does point to reflexology as a useful complementary approach in managing hypertension.

It’s a reminder that small, non-invasive interventions can still have meaningful physiological effects.

The early months with a baby are full of learning. Reading cues, finding rhythms, and figuring out what helps your baby feel safe, calm, and settled. Baby reflexology is not about fixing or treating anything, but about gentle, responsive touch and connection.

Simple reflexology techniques can be used as part of everyday routines to support comfort, relaxation, and bonding. Through calm, attentive touch, babies may begin to associate these moments with safety and reassurance, which can help them settle more easily and relax into rest.

Many parents find that baby reflexology also helps them slow down, tune in, and feel more confident responding to their baby’s signals. These shared moments of connection can support emotional closeness and create a sense of calm for both parent and baby during a time that can otherwise feel overwhelming.

When practiced gently and responsively, baby reflexology can be a nurturing way to support wellbeing in the early months, alongside routine postnatal and infant care. 👶👣
