Problems in Pregnancy – Reflexology is very effective in ‘morning sickness’ as Christine found out!

Chris was suffering from really bad ‘morning sickness’. Despite its name, this ailment can affect mothers to be at any time of the day and some people, like poor Chris, can suffer from it throughout their entire pregnancy! Reflexology treatment really helped quell that nauseous feeling. Continuing treatments throughout her pregnancy, Chris went on to have a relatively short labour, Here’s what she had to say:

“I was suffering really badly with sickness and Julie had been recommended to me by a friend. I went to see her for my first treatment as 12 weeks and did not know what to expect. I was so sick that I couldn’t even drive myself anywhere. I had to have my boyfriend drive me. I went for my first treatment carrying ginger biscuits in my bag as the ginger seemed to help me. I felt no sickness throughout the treatment and no sickness straight after. I felt amazing. I went home and the following day I even had a cup of tea which I had not been able to do since conceiving. I continued my treatments throughout the pregnancy and although I had bouts of slight sickness up to the end of my pregnancy I do not know what I would have done without the reflexology sessions as they were a gift to me and had reduced my symptoms dramatically. I returned to driving within days of my first treatment and returned to work after 4 days of the first treatment. I had been off work for weeks prior to this due to the sickness. I continued with treatments up until my little girl was born and the labour was a very short 4 hours. Thank you”
