after-care advice leaflet

To maximise the healing benefits of your treatment, please follow these guidelines below for the next 24 - 48 hours.

Drink plenty of water (approx. 2 litres) to help flush out the toxins within your body that were released during the treatment. Sip it slowly throughout the day.

​

  • You may add a slice of cucumber which aids hydration and can provide some antioxidants and nutrients like potassium and vitamin K, or lemon to boost vitamin C to your water.

 

Rest & Relax to experience the greatest benefits of the treatment. Read a book, listen to music.

 

Things to Avoid - Please do not drink alcohol or caffeinated drinks for at least 24 hours after the treatment as this can reduce the calming effects of the treatment.

 

  • Eat light nourishing foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains to help the body with the healing process

  • For those having facial reflexology, avoid make-up for up to an hour after treatment

 

Exercise a gentle walk or stretching to promote energy flow and improve circulation. Please avoid any strenuous activities.

 

Healing Responses - you may experience any of the following after the treatment, which is a normal reaction. These are temporary and a sign the treatment has been effective.

 

  • Feeling emotional, tired or very relaxed.

  • Increased urination

  • Increased sweating due to toxins leaving the body.

  • Headaches, aches or symptom flare ups (known as a healing crisis)

 

When to Seek Advice - Please contact your therapist should you experience severe or prolonged discomfort.

Thank you for choosing rest and restore reflexology for your treatment
