Reflexology
Human beings first started walking bare footed, feeling the Earth's vibrations and as they walked, the ongoing massage of their soles provided them with a constant stimulation of the feet reflexes With the modern constraint of often ill-fitting shoes, we have lost the ability to self-heal through walking; this is where Reflexology comes in.
The feet have a language...
Their shape, condition, colour, angle and size reveal a lot about the patient, as well as any blemish or hard skin. This gives Stéphane an idea of past troubles and current problems. To stimulate inner harmony, she visualizes colours throughout the treatment. These alter the energy vibrations which are absorbed into the body.
In time, as the mental and emotional aspects of the Self harmonize with the physical, trust in life develops, positivity and joy return to open the doors to one's true self, free from societal and parental constraints, old traumas and limiting beliefs. All we have to do is make the first step.
Universal Reflexology
Reflexology is based on the concept that the body is reflected in the feet. The organs, muscles, nerves and arteries in the right side of the body are reflected in the right foot, and those in the left side of the body in the left foot, forming a complete map of the body. The two feet thus act as a mirror, with all systems being represented, such as the endocrine, vascular, nervous, respiratory and digestive systems.
Stéphane specializes in Universal Reflexology, a gentle, non-invasive, holistic treatment that works on the physical, mental and emotional levels. The body is treated as a whole, both feet at the same time. Stéphane, whose touch is unique and personal, acts as a catalyst between the universe and the patient. She doesn't take credit for any change in well-being taking place but sees working with the client as a privilege. Touch is used with complete acceptance of the other and the purest intent; there is no judgement. The patient receives as much or as little as he/she is ready for and is ultimately responsible for his/her willingness to release past emotions and beliefs.
Through her practice of "Metta" and "Medicine Buddha" meditations, Stéphane has developed a very personal style of Reflexology, working in the spirit of Loving Kindness.
Treatment Information
Universal Reflexology is a non-invasive treatment, with only the shoes and socks being removed. The client is either reclining on a chair or lying on a massage couch - this allows him/her to relax into a deep alpha state and let go of the day's tensions and emotions. The session lasts around 50 minutes, after which the client is allowed to slowly come back to earth and have some time for practitioner-client feedback.
A reaction to the treatment may be felt within 24 to 48 hours as the body may have been encouraged to get rid of toxins. These are excellent signs. Drinking plenty of mineral water helps speed up detoxification.
In order to fully activate the positive influence of Reflexology, Stéphane suggests an initial course of four weekly treatments, followed twice-monthly, and monthly thereafter, for long lasting effects.
