Welcome To Reflexology Bedford
Hi my name is Samantha Marriott and I am Reflexology Bedford. Im qualified in Reflexology, Cancer Care Reflexology, Indian Head Massage and Reiki, based in Bedford and supporting Bedfordshire and the surrounding areas.
Im a qualified practitioner in holistic and alternative medical practices, and am a VTCT Reflexologist and have gained certification to treat Cancer Care Clients with Reflexology by the FHT as well as a Level 3 diploma in Human Anatomy and Physiology.
I am also a fully qualified Reiki Master with Reiki 1 and 2 attunements available.
I first became interested in complementary therapies when I was diagnosed with an auto immune disease in 2004. A very dear friend introduced me to Reiki in 2012, when I was in a very dark place, taking anything up to 15 different types of tablets a day trying to keep things under control. I was desperate, I hated taking them and this was not the way I wanted to live my life, who would? So I took the opportunity and gave Reiki a go – it was the best thing I ever did, within 4 months I was off most of my medications, virtually pain free, and able to live a normal life.
After experiencing first hand the beneficial effects of Reiki, I knew I wanted to train to be able to offer this to other people, and am now a qualified Master to levels 1 and 2. In Feb 2020 I gained my VTCT Reflexology and Level 3 diploma in Human Anatomy and Physiology. I gained my certification to treat Cancer Care Clients with Reflexology by the FHT in April 2021. I’m also member of the Association of Reflexologists.
Reflexology & Reiki
Ancient history tells us Reflexology has been practised for more than 4000 years, as far back as ancient Egypt, China and India. Reflexology is specifically designed to remove imbalances in the body. Working on either your hands or feet, gentle pressure is applied to bring your body back into balance, creating a sense of well being, aiding pain relief, insomnia, anxiety, depression, hormonal issues, IBS, migraines, Fibromyalgia, the list goes on. Hospitals are now beginning to use the treatments for patients with serious illnesses such as Cancer and M.S.
Reiki is a healing therapy, using the transfer of energy via the practitioners hands to the clients body. Working on an intuitive level, the energy flow realigns your body to it’s natural state, promoting wellbeing, aiding pain relief, reducing anxiety, insomnia and depression, encouraging inner peace, relieving arthritis, aiding with the rebalancing of hormones and releasing of old traumas. A major benefit of this treatment is that it doesn’t require any manipulation of the body, and can be used in tandem with Reflexology.
Both treatments last between 45 to 60 minute.
My nine years as a practitioner has only enhanced my belief in the amazing power of these treatments. Complementary treatments can be safely used in conjunction with most medications, supplements and other treatments given by your medical practitioners, however, it is advisable to seek out advice from your GP before starting any new therapies.
