Hey there, I tried one session - not enough to help with fertility of course, but to see if it was relaxing.

It was ok, nice but not totally relaxing - and expensive, so decided to put the money towards the treatments.

Worth a go to see how you feel I think? X

Hi, I have had reflexology sessions and for me, I love them. I tried accupuncture too. Enjoyed both, but found reflexology more relaxing. I lie in a dim lit room, lovely calming music, lovely aromas and I have often drifted off. As well as it being relaxing, it helps with healing as they can pin-point 'weak' areas. The things she identifies are usually spot on. Whether you believe that a foot massage can help heal them is another story- my husbsnd is sceptical!! But I love it, so each to their own. I guess, give it a try and you will know then xx

I have. It lowers my stress levels and it feels relaxing, my reflexologist can’t tell me when I’m under the weather and her tips do help. It hasn’t helped me to fall pregnant though... still unexplained.

My reflexologist has suggested we drop to one monthly session before ovulation as she thinks that’s the key time bc and I can no longer afford to go weekly. X

I would recommend it, it’s very relaxing and amazing what they can tell you about your body from your feet. I think it improved my lining x
