therapiauk is run by Sandie Keane who is a qualified Oriental Body Balance Practitioner. On your first appointment you will undergo a process of screening where details of your symptoms will be noted and then you will go through a spinal and muscle assessment which will draw Sandie to a conclusion as to what treatment is best for you on the day.
The testing is re-done at the end of the treatment to show you the reuslts.
This is not a miracle cure. It is a process that may take 4-6 treatments depending on the severity of your condition. Once the condition is cleared you will be advised to go back maybe once or twice a year for an MOT. If however the treatment does not resolve the problem you will be referred to another specialist.

Refexology

Reflexology is a complementary therapy and involves a pressure technique using the thumbs and fingers on the reflex areas found in the feet. Reflexology is extremely effective and is based on the principle that reflexes in the feet correspond to each organ and structure in the body, and are linked to those organs by energy channels, zones or meridians. When illness occurs in the body, the corresponding energy channels become blocked, and Reflexology is applied to destroy these blockages, allowing the energy to flow freely again, so restoring the body’s natural balance
