Insomnia

Insomnia is the regular inability to fall asleep or stay asleep, leading to excessive tiredness. The cause of insomnia may be due to stress or anxiety. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, alcohol and caffeine intake may also contribute to insomnia. Insomnia is also associated with depression and can also be linked to digestive problems.

The main aim of a reflexology treatment is to release stress, tension and anxiety. This is so beneficial for someone who is living with insomnia. Jane has treated several patients with insomnia, most of whom have relaxed and fallen asleep during their first treatment! The patient has given themselves the time to relax which in turn has rewarded them with a good nights sleep.

Regular reflexology can encourage a regular sleeping pattern and help the patients to rid themselves of stress and anxiety. A consultation during the first treatment will look into lifestyle changes that can be made to assist with the improvement of sleep patterns.
