Introduction

Everyone’s fertility journey is different, we are all unique.

Reproductive Reiki Reflex creates a tailored treatment plan for each couple or individual trying to conceive. Treatment plans start at the very beginning of the fertility journey and if desired are there to support and continue throughout pregnancy right up to the birth.

Reiki & Reflexology are used to support each individual, to reduce stress and anxiety, balance hormones, acknowledge past pregnancies and work alongside conventional medical care. I am so grateful to those that allow me to be part of their fertility journey!

Why Reproductive Reiki Reflex?

Supporting the fertility & maternity journey

Reproductive Reiki Reflex offers support through every stage of your fertility journey using Reiki and Reflexology. Reproductive Reiki Reflex uses the two therapies in a unique treatment plan that is tailor made for the individual to reduce stress, balance hormones and work alongside conventional medical care such as oral medicine through to IVF.
I am dedicated to helping others in what can be a very difficult time, offering a place to talk about things you may not want to share with others, supporting you from the start of your journey, throughout pregnancy and beyond.

It is amazing to see when people improve their own health and wellbeing, to see ladies start cycles they never had, to see an individual go from stress, anxiety, sadness to feelings of calm and enjoyment. Getting that phone call to confirm a pregnancy or an email of the latest scan picture tops this off, but nothing is more rewarding than the messages and photos of a new and healthy baby with their loving and happy parents. These positive results continue to drive my passion to help and support clients in whatever their fertility journey may involve.

Reproductive Reiki Reflex

Consultation £50 followed by £47.50 per one hour session

Whether treatments are face to face or via zoom each client / couple will start with a thorough consultation to discuss what treatments are best suited for them in order to complement their personal health and well-being. This will include looking at any past test results and existing treatments such as oral medication, IVF etc.

The treatment plan would ideally start with weekly treatments for a month, followed by fortnightly treatments with the aim to eventually move to once a month dependent on the individual’s needs. Reiki & Reflexology offer a totally relaxing and rebalancing experience, however a treatment plan may be structured using only one of these treatments during a session.

Treatments start with a breathing focus and during the session you may experience a sensation of heat, cold, tenderness, tingling or twitching at certain points as rebalancing occurs or more commonly, you may fall asleep.

At the end of the treatment you may feel totally relaxed, a deep sense of calm and well-being, a feeling of revitalisation or relief i.e. a cleared headache. Some may experience other symptoms (both physical and emotional) up to 24 hours after, as your body rebalances and detoxes i.e. tiredness, slight head ache or a cold, which are temporary.

Contra-indications – There may occasionally be times when it is not suitable to provide a treatment for example; if someone has a temperature or fever, thrombosis, infectious illness or immediately after surgery. Please ask your therapist, midwife or GP if you have any concerns before treatment

Note: Reiki & Reflexology sessions are not intended to give medical diagnosis or treatment, or to serve as a substitute for current or recommended medical care. Reflexologists do not claim to prescribe, diagnose or cure

I am very excited to be working with some amazing fertility experts

Fertility Testimonials

K.SMITH’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

After a stressful year and two miscarriages I was feeling really negative about the future. It was suggested to me by a friend that going to see Ali for reflexology and reiki could help. I was sceptical, but thought it was worth a try. Ali was really easy to talk to from the very first time I met her, and after explaining my situation and everything I was feeling we got started on a mix of reiki and reflexology.

After a few sessions with Ali I found out I was pregnant for the third time! Ali supported me throughout all aspects of my pregnancy. She adjusted the therapy she gave me as I progressed through my pregnancy in accordance with how I was feeling and medical information from the hospital. I now have a beautiful baby girl!

I totally believe that the therapy given to me by Ali played a huge part in the success of my pregnancy and is one of the reasons I now have my baby! I can’t thank Ali enough and if there is anyone considering giving it a try, go for it! You have nothing to lose, but certainly a lot to gain!!! Xx

CAROLYNS FERTILITY JOURNEY

I came to Ali broken and battle weary from four failed ivf cycles, seeking to try something new. Working with Ali through her reflexology and reiki sessions I not only explored, faced and “put to bed” my feelings of failure and disappointment, but learnt to believe in myself again, trust in my body and the process, and get into a much more positive mindset, facing the next couple of cycles from a position of strength in mind, body & soul.

Cycle 5 saw more eggs collected than ever before, and 3 embryos frozen – something we had never achieved before. Cycle 6 saw the transfer of one of these embryos, and as I write this, I’m looking at my 10-week-old baby son feeling like the luckiest girl in the world.

It’s hard to put into words how thankful I am to Ali and feel it must have been fate that a traffic jam led me to notice her company sign one morning commute, and the rest, as they say, is history!

MRS C’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I was recommended to Ali through a work colleague after discussing having experienced two previous miscarriages and I felt that I was at a point I would try anything to help myself and my fertility journey. I had never really heard about reflexology and what it really entailed.

I contacted Ali and we had an initial telephone conversation. Ali was very welcoming, and friendly from the very beginning and gave me some advice over the phone and it was from then I made my first appointment.

Upon arriving I felt very welcomed, walking into a very calm and relaxing environment. Ali made me feel so at ease, I felt that I could be open, be safe in discussing my fears and concerns, and many visits after the first became more comfortable and relaxing.

Ali’s kind mannered and enthusiastic approach, made me feel a huge source of support emotionally and physically before and during my IVF journey.

If it was not for my sessions with Ali and her expert skills, knowledge and advice on recommending clinical treatments I would probably not be able to write that we did manage to have a baby girl.

On the days I was receiving IVF treatment, Ali made sure she went the extra mile to provide distance reiki on the days we were receiving IVF. This was a huge support on my IVF journey, as it made me feel calm relaxed and thinking positively.

I feel it has been a privilege to know and receive treatment with Ali and I would not hesitate to recommend her expertise to anyone suffering from fertility issues.

I cannot begin to thankyou enough for your guidance, calmness, support, and being a part of our journey

KAREN’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I met Ali by chance Aug/sept 2018 , I had lost two pregnancies under different circumstances and I was having a difficult time. My emotions, anxiety and stress levels were a little high , I was looking for something to help and meeting Ali couldn’t of come at a better time.

After my first consultation with Ali I thought I would never see her again as I off loaded a ton of things to her maybe a little too much but felt like I could trust her straight away with my feelings. Whether that is part of her job or not I have found her to be one of the most easiest to talk to and I know she is genuinely interested your wellbeing.

I had 6 consecutive weeks of 1 treatment a week of reiki and reflexology at the start and I could genuinely feel a difference after the first.
I have then continued to see Ali at least once a month or more as she has helped and supported me on my fertility journey up to Sept of this year (2019).

We were on the road to start IVF and I was going to continue with the holistic treatments alongside however we found out I was pregnant days before starting the injections.

I do believe the treatments I had with Ali have helped and played a significant part in getting me where I wanted to be and I am grateful that it happened naturally for us in the end. We now have a beautiful little boy.

I encourage anyone with any problems , fertility issues or concerns with their wellness to give the treatments a try.

I will certainly be making reiki and reflexology a part of my life going forward even if it’s for relaxation purposes and an hour of sleep.

Thank you Ali for everything I cannot thank you enough xxxxx

MRS D’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I look forward to my Reflexology sessions with Ali so much! I suffer with endometriosis and after a treatment with Ali, I feel relaxed and recharged again. The pain eases and I’m able to sleep so much better.

Ali is so knowledgeable in regards to remedies and anything that may help mind/body. She made me a special cream to apply to my feet which worked a treat and smelt amazing.

Ali concentrated on fertility reflexology and I fell pregnant a few months later (Ali also advised me to use the cream when I was experiencing leg pain during pregnancy which gave me some relief during night times). You’re in good hands with Ali…it’s my special mummy treat and I can’t wait for my next session.

MRS L’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

After 3 years of trying to conceive and initial investigations pointing towards unexplained infertility, I decided to try a holistic approach. Ali provided a safe and serene environment, we spent the first session talking about my mental blocks and anxieties around pregnancy, and decided to proceed with a mix of reiki and reflexology.
After just 3 months of treatments, I found out that I was pregnant with our baby girl! Ali continued to support me throughout my pregnancy, and I had a relatively easy birth, almost a year to the day from my first visit. We will be forever grateful for Ali’s help.

MICHELLE’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I was actually recommended Ali and RebalanceYou treatments from a friend as she too had such a positive, uplifting experience from her appointments. Ali provided me with a range of reiki and reflexology treatments which were specifically for clients who needed enlightenment and guidance through their fertility journey.

Throughout the induction period Ali listened intently to my individual journey and tailor-made her treatments to suit my needs. She offered sound advice backed by academic training and she seemed to somehow reset my thinking after every appointment.

Over all, I always left Ali’s treatment room, feeling more at ease and positive, completely relaxed and a little bit closer in achieving my goal. I would highly recommend these treatments to anyone who is in a similar situation to me.

FERTILITY JOURNEY

I started a medical cash plan recommended by Money Saving Expert to save a tiny bit of money and spread the cost of my regular dental and optician charges. I then realised they also covered holistic therapy from qualified practitioners at a similar time as I was starting IVF treatment because of male factor infertility. Reflexology seemed like a great way to help me relax and practice some self-care whilst going through the treatment which I knew would be an emotional and physical ordeal.

I found Ali at ReBalanceYou through a Google maps search and approached her about reflexology sessions. I soon had a consultation and my first session where I told her about my fertility journey. I have been to Ali several times since then and each time she tailored the session to where I was at on my fertility treatment cycle, sometimes including an element of reiki as well as reflexology.

I was funded by the NHS for two cycles of IVF with ICSI under Salford CCG. In my first full cycle we produced two blastocysts. However, both the first implantation and the second frozen one was unsuccessful, most likely due to chromosomal abnormalities. In my second and final NHS funded cycle under Salford CCG we produced only one blastocyst. I struggled to believe the implantation would work and was coming to an acceptance that we may not have biological children. However, the cliché that ‘it only takes one’ proved true in my case. The last chance worked, and I am currently 7 months pregnant.

The reflexology served to help me relax throughout the process. It allowed me to focus on myself and take time out of my day to think about my body and fertility journey more holistically. Ali encouraged me to think about being back in her studio and feeling calm before going in for the implantation. The first two times were very emotional, tense and quite painful for me but by the third time I was a lot calmer. This time, before entering the procedure room I tried to take myself back to the state I am in during a reflexology session. I found the experience much less painful or emotionally overwhelming, despite it being our last chance. Coincidentally, this one was successful.

It’s been wonderful to have this extra calming thing I do throughout this rollercoaster experience. I plan to have a couple more reflexology session with Ali before I give birth

MRS B’S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I first met Ali just after my 4th miscarriage. My losses were all early and despite numerous investigations, no cause was found. At the time of meeting her, my head was spinning and I couldn’t even think about trying again.

Ali was patient throughout and never pushed me. She knew the importance of going at my pace and understood how terrifying the idea of going through it again was and we focused on my well-being and getting me in a place where I could be me again, giving me lots of things I could do outside of sessions to support me in managing my anxiety and stress levels.

I now find myself 16 weeks pregnant and although it’s not been an easy journey, the support I’ve had from Ali has been invaluable. She’s helped me through the early days of anxiety and panic and now has helped me see a way forward that allows me to bond with my baby and enjoy my pregnancy. I genuinely believe that without her I wouldn’t have found the balance I needed both physically and emotionally.

Mrs B, who gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby!

FERTILITY JOURNEY

I was referred to Ali by a friend, who had recommended working with her as part of my fertility journey. From the very first session, Ali put so much in to perspective and provided tips and guidance on ways to help my journey that I hadn’t even thought of. I left all of the sessions with Ali feeling more relaxed and positive. I continued sessions throughout my pregnancy and again, Ali helped me to feel positive and prepared for the next stage.

Looking forward to some postnatal sessions with her when time, and the little one, will allow it.

MRS G’s FERTILITY JOURNEY

I started sessions with Ali to help support our IVF treatment… I was made to feel relaxed and at ease and Ali shared her knowledge and advice with me.

Before visiting Ali we had two failed IVF cycles and I then came to Ali with the hope that her expertise could help our journey. After regular sessions with Ali, on my 3rd cycle, double the amount of eggs were collected! We have no doubt that Ali’s sessions helped to facilitate this.

We are extremely lucky to say we now have a beautiful baby girl and can’t thank Ali enough as we believe that this would not have been possible without her. X

MISS K’ S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I would highly recommend Ali to anyone who is struggling to conceive or struggling with anxiety. She helped me to be positive through the wait and challenges of IVF and helped me get in a better state of mind through reflexology and reiki. Also little things like the breath work and how to mentally see each contraction as a step closer to meeting my baby, was invaluable for me and helped me more than I can say. Thank you again Ali xx

MRS A’ S FERTILITY JOURNEY

I met with Ali shortly after my 4th miscarriage and looking back I was in a state of constant hypervigilance and felt constantly panic stricken. Ali worked with me to help me regulate my nervous system and supported me to incorporate grounding strategies into my every day. My baby turns 1 next week and I genuinely don’t know how I would have managed an anxious pregnancy without her support. She helped me through my grief into a place where I felt hopeful enough to try again and kept me sane with regular reflexology and reiki sessions. I’ve kept these up as I see how vital they are to my well-being.
