Loose, casual, comfortable clothing should be worn. You want to be able to relax during your treatment without tight clothing or belts digging in.

Yes! I will ask you to remove your shoes and socks and roll up your trousers. I will also place a blanket over you so both warmth and modesty will be retained.

It shouldn’t hurt but you may experience some discomfort if I find an area that is out of balance or congested. The discomfort will pass as I work through the congestion. You can always let me know if it is too much and I will move to another area.

I will take a brief medical history and ask about your lifestyle, current health and some general information about yourself so I can build up a holistic view of you and adapt the treatment to your needs.

Congratulations! Yes, you can have reflexology, but I will need to ask you a few further questions beforehand to ascertain your general health and how your pregnancy is progressing.

Yes, firstly I should point out that reflexology is not a gentle massage. It involves varying degrees of pressure on reflex points. Most clients who are worried about it being too “tickly” settle and enjoy the treatment. If it is too much for you though I can always work on the hands.

Reflexology is recognised by most Irish health insurance companies. However, each policy is different so please check your own plan to be sure. I am registered with the Irish Reflexology Institute of Ireland so I can issue you a receipt for your treatment.

There’s parking at the Fair Green car park which is just across the road from me. There is also ample parking in the multistorey car park in The Athlone Towncentre shopping centre.
