There are several different forms of reflexology available to you at Happy Feet and each one has their own advantages. They will all spruce you up and each one is excellent preventative medicine.
INGHAM REFLEXOLOGY
Ingham Reflexoloy is ‘traditional’ form, usually deeply relaxing and great at restoring your body’s natural balance, working on all organs, tissues and systems. The blissful rest helps your body naturally repair and maintain itself.
We recommend a session at least once a month as one of the best preventative modalities available. It includes a warm foot bath with essential oils.
Session 1hr $100, 30 minutes $60
MATERNITY REFLEXOLOGY
Ingham Method, usually includes Endocrine Balance and Lymphatic Technique, as needed. It is recommended that Maternity Reflexology sessions should be shorter and more frequent, i.e. once a week especially for 3rd Trimester.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
You can expect the session to be a relaxing experience, I encourage you to relax and switch off. At your first session you will be asked to complete a health history form. This enables us to develop a treatment plan for your own individual needs. You will then be made comfortable in a reclining chair, with a modesty blanket or wrap and even a hot water bottle! Your feet will then be worked with the pressure adjusted to your sensitivity. The effectiveness of treatment depends on the number of ‘bites’ per inch not hard pressure. All systems are worked in every session with particular attention paid to your individual needs.
-
Like other modalities, reflexology can be effective immediately, or sometimes not. It usually depends on how long you have had the condition. With a chronic condition I usually recommend 3 treatments in 14 days, the Chinese practice once a day for 10 days (30 min). So it is good to trust your practitioner and his/her recommendations but ultimately it is your intuition/judgment that must be relied on.
It can take some people several sessions to get to a place where the effects will last a month. Until then the effects (good feelings) may last from days to a week. We aim to get the effects lasting for a month at least.
-
The benefits accumulate or build up in each person so that the goodness one feels after a session will extend from a couple of days to a week at first maybe to a month of goodness. For that reason it is good to have 3 treatments close together at the beginning. That will give you a warm glow for a month and you will understand and feel what Reflexology can do for you. Everyone is different though and some get the good feeling for an extended period right away.
-
A series of sessions may be required if the condition is a chronic one.
Regular monthly sessions are recommended to maintain your health and wellbeing.
-
I enjoy working with anyone who is willing to explore their emotional side, especially the negative. You don’t have to share with me, so long as you verbalise any emotions that come up somewhere, even to a tree. It is in the act of speaking them out that we get our answers, hearing our own voice saying these things. Instead of going round and round in our head.
-
Ticklish feet are worked firmly, or else we work the hands.
-
Only your footwear needs to be removed. Your feet will either be bathed or wiped before the treatment.
-
Yes, I am a registered health provider, and health fund rebates are available, but this depends on your health fund and is unlikely as most rebates for reflexology were removed by the federal government in 2017.
“I’ve now had a couple of Reflexology treatments with Martin Greig.
The first time I had a treatment I was quite stressed out in my life. During and after the session I experienced the most deep sense of relaxation I had felt in a long time. It was unlike any other natural therapy treatment I had had up to that point. I had seen massage therapists and healers, but something was different about his Reflexology.
I don’t know if it was his good intention, his caring nature, his skill as a therapist or the nurturing feeling I got from having my feet done – either way , it was truly a beautiful and relaxing experience, After that I was hooked.
I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone at all. In fact, I am a natural therapist and health coach myself and I found that I was referring some of my clients to him!”
