“As tension is eased, pressure on the nerves and vessels is relaxed thus improving the flow of blood and its oxygen rich nutrients to all parts of the body”.
Welcome to Balance + Beyond, where nurturing, therapeutic and deeply relaxing reflexology treatments are offered in a warm and soothing space - helping you to truly switch off, rest, recharge and re-set during an hour of blissful relaxation, whilst the body is gently stimulated through massaging pressure points to promote self-healing.
Reflexology works on the theory that by massaging and stimulating specific reflex points on the feet, hands or face, organs and systems of the body are accessed. This is understood to release blockages and promote more optimal functioning, which can relieve symptoms associated with a multitude of health conditions, whilst simultaneously inducing feelings of calm and boosting overall vitality and wellbeing.
It is important to note that reflexology is not a replacement for medical treatment, but rather a highly regarded complementary therapy which is often used in hospitals alongside conventional medicine. Many individuals turn to reflexology as a natural way to alleviate stress, relieve pain and improve their overall health. By targeting pressure points on the feet and hands, reflexology aims to improve circulation and induce relaxation, promoting healing and helping to combat the symptoms of illness.
During a reflexology session, gentle pressure is applied to reflexes that are understood to correspond with specific areas of the body, which can lead to more optimal functioning of the organs and body systems. At Balance+Beyond, I provide clinical reflexology treatments to the hands, feet, and face, with the option to enhance your experience by selecting multiple areas for treatment.
This 40-minute treatment works in a similar way to foot reflexology and is ideal for individuals seeking a briefer treatment. It is ideal for those who are unable to have their feet treated due to conditions such as fungal infection or injury infection, or simply for those who prefer not to have their feet treated.
The practice of reflexology can offer numerous benefits for the body and the mind, so whether you choose to have treatments for a specific condition, or simply for its soothing and relaxing effects, the benefits are countless.
Facial reflexology is extremely calming and highly beneficial; resulting in a renewed and radiant complexion. Soothing and therapeutic elixirs are applied and reflex points are stimulated through gentle massage and the use of crystal tools, leaving you with a sense of harmony and healthy, glowing skin.
This treatment involves massaging the feet with smooth, rhythmic movements and the application of gentle pressure to stimulate reflexes that correspond to different organs and body systems. This in turn stimulates the body’s own powers of self-healing, whilst leaving you feeling a profound sense of relaxation and balance.
My name is Claire, and I found my way to reflexology after a fast-paced career in business, followed by a period of critical illness, which led me to re-evaluate absolutely everything. Since then I have undergone extensive training with the world-renowned London School of Reflexology and gained an ITEC Diploma. I am a Member of the Association of Reflexologists which is the UK’s premier membership organisation for qualified reflexologists.
I have benefitted immensely from reflexology treatments, and it is my sincere wish that you will too.
Reflexology is known to have been practiced for centuries in ancient cultures and has evolved over the years into a practice that is now widely used alongside conventional medicine as a complementary therapy to enhance wellbeing. It works in a similar way to acupuncture and acupressure and aims to stimulate energy pathways in the body through pressing and massaging reflex points, allowing energy to flow freely again, restoring balance to the body.
Balance + Beyond’s clinic location is in Warlingham, Surrey, with easy access from both Whyteleafe and Upper Warlingham train stations.

“My job is highly pressured, and after a health scare, I was advised by my doctor to start making some lifestyle changes. Someone gave me a gift of a reflexology treatment - I have to say it was a game changer. I now have regular treatments and feel more calm, relaxed and healthy than I have in years."
