Specialised reflexology treatments for enhanced wellbeing and balance.
Jane Ford BSc (Hons) AoR welcomes you...
I trained to become a clinical reflexologist because reflexology provides the holistic care that can be lacking in today's stressful, fast-paced society. We are not always good at self-care, perhaps too busy looking after others or maybe the emotional and physical demands thrust upon us become overwhelming. This can lead to stress-related conditions such as tension, pain, anxiety and poor sleep to mention just a few.
I am also a registered nurse with a background in stroke rehabilitation, elderly, acquired brain injury, continence, palliative and end of life care.
I graduated from the Contemporary Reflexology College with a level 5 diploma in reflexology, the highest possible in the UK and required by the Association of Reflexologists (AoR) to become a member. As a member of the AoR, I am recognised by the NHS.
My training covered specialist techniques and adaptations for:
- Life limiting or chronic conditions;
- Supporting people with fertility and maternity care;
- Reflexology for babies;
- Reflexology for the older person;
- Hand reflexology;
- Auricular (ear) reflexology;
- Palliative care;
- AIR© (Adaptive Integrated Reflexology) which is unique to Contemporary Reflexology College and is an adaptive treatment designed to support people experiencing stress.
- 5 Element Meridian Reflexology;
The Theory of Reflexology
Reflexology is a non-invasive complementary therapy which can be enjoyed alongside conventional medical treatments allowing the body to rebalance and restore wellbeing naturally.
Reflexology is based on the belief that the whole of the body is represented in the feet, hands, and ears at specific points calls reflexes. Using hands, thumbs and fingers gentle pressure is applied to the reflexes which releases areas of discomfort. The tenderness in some of the reflexes is transient and the overall effect is one of calm, deep relaxation and an enhanced sense of wellbeing.
It should not be used as an alternative to conventional medical treatment or to seeking medical attention. Most people can have reflexology but there are a few occasions where it may not be suitable. Any questions you may have can be answered when you book your treatment.
Your Reflexology Treatment
In your first session a full history is taken and then an investigatory reflexology treatment is given involving all the reflexes. I will use thumbs, fingers and hands to work the reflexes and the feedback from this treatment is then used to formulate a personalised treatment plan which forms the basis of your following treatments. All treatments finish with a relaxing foot and lower leg massage or hand and forearm if having a treatment on the hands. I will chat to you about your aftercare and suggest your personal schedule of reflexology treatments.
Reflexology is given in a reclining chair which elevates the feet. Any adjustments are made to ensure that you are as comfortable and supported as possible and a cosy blanket provided to snuggle under - especially good in the cooler months!

Holistic Healing
Reflexology aims to treat the person rather than the condition by considering your wellbeing from both a physical and non-physical perspective and is individual to everyone. Your treatment is bespoke and designed for your needs alone.
Deep Relaxation
As a deeply relaxing complementary therapy, reflexology helps the body release tension, boost mood, enhance sleep quality, and promote an improved sense of wellbeing. Experience the benefits of personalised reflexology sessions designed to restore balance and harmony, right here in Warwickshire.
Suitable for Everyone
Reflexology is a non-invasive complementary therapy suitable for everyone: babies, children, teenagers through to those experiencing the menopause, older individuals and everybody in between. We all experience challenges to our wellbeing at all stages of our lives. Reflexology offers gentle care, tailored to the needs of the individual.
Relax...
...all you need to remove is your footwear!
Loose trousers are a good idea to allow for the leg massage.
If you are self-conscious about your feet or ticklish, please don't worry. Reflexology is a reassuring, therapeutic touch and there is no judgement about how your feet look. Every foot is welcome!
How many treatments?
Everyone is individual and has different aims for their treatments. You may feel the benefit immediately or it may take a few weeks to feel the cumulative effect. This can be discussed after your treatment and a schedule suggested for you. You may wish to have treatments to maintain balance and an enhanced sense of wellbeing.
Stress Relief in a Busy World
Everyone feels the effects of stress at certain times in their lives and how we manage this stress has a huge impact our emotional wellbeing. Reflexology can help to relieve tension, improve mood and sleep quality, supporting the body to cope with the stress.

What my clients say...
“A reflexology session with Jane is a very relaxing and calming experience. She is a friendly positive person who has lots of knowledge not only of reflexology but also as a result of her nursing experience, which enhances the session. The treatment is thorough and targeted to the areas we discussed and which I had highlighted to Jane.
Her treatment room is a lovely calming comfortable space. Jane takes time to talk to you about how you feel and what the focus of the session should be. After the session Jane will talk through techniques for me to try at home.
After the sessions I always feel ready for anything the day should bring.”
Sue, Warwickshire
“Jane took time to explore my wellbeing and health issues in a thoughtful and insightful manner. Her approach is very much tailored to the individual and reflects a high degree of skill and knowledge. I felt a very strong sense of relaxation and connection during the treatment...and her wonderful studio only adds to the 'treat'! Thank you so much Jane, l will be back ;)”
Diane, Birmingham
“Thank you, Jane,
for the wonderful reflexology treatment this morning. I have had reflexology several times in the past and I can honestly say that the session I had with you was by far the most relaxing and beneficial in easing my stress and pain. I look forward to my next appointment in two weeks’ time.”
