Reflexology is complementary modality that supports the body's own natural healing abilities. Our body has everything it needs to heal itself but when there is an imbalance there is intervention required to support in returning to balance or homeostasis. Reflexology uses pressure points on the feet that correlate with different areas of the body. When these pressure points are manipulated they engage the area of the brain associated with the corresponding organs and stimulate your body's natural processes of healing. This activation can release tension, increase or balance productions of bodily fluids such as hormones, relieve pain, and more. It is a safe, non-invasive modality for all ages.

"Thank you so much Ashley, it was a pleasure working with you.
The truth is that as I go along this journey of tapping into people's energy and healing gifts, I am being healed as I channel their energy into a piece of art. It’s like each person's portrait comes to me at the exact right time in my life when I need that energy the most. When I began this soulful woman’s portrait, I really needed to connect back inwards to my truth, to my divine feminine wisdom, to the cycles of nature, life, this planet, my soul. She is a woman who is deeply connected to plants, Gaia, her own calm observant wisdom and natural healing abilities. She knows when to pull back and go inwards to connect with her deepest truth and spark of life within her. She knows when to send her roots down into the earth to recharge her energy.
She knows when to weed her garden to make space for new growth, she realizes that endings are really just making way for new beginnings. That everything is truly connected. I really needed to be in and absorb the lessons of that energy Ashley, so thank you. "
