Pre-ConceptionIn an ideal world the time to begin to prepare your body for pregnancy is about four months before conception. The most important developments in the womb take place in the early weeks of pregnancy so it is a good idea when planning a pregnancy to ensure your body is in optimum condition to carry a baby, having rid the body of as many toxins as possible. Before conception, there are certain techniques that can be used that may balance the hormonal system, relax the client, and give an energy boost to the parts of the body that need it. Reflexology can help place your body in the optimum state for conception and early development of the baby.

Reflexology is wonderful in pregnancy, not least because you get a two for one treatment as your growing baby can be felt and even seen on the foot. Many practitioners have doubt in treating a woman in the first stages of pregnancy. This is not the case for a lot of professionally trained reflexologists as many of them will have had specialist training to deal with all stages of pregnancy. The aim of reflexology is simply to bring about balance and harmony in the body, to say it will do harm is as simple as saying if walking in bare feet across a pebble beach would also do harm. The principles are the same.
