Reflexology supporting people living with Cancer

I was diagnosed with uh cancer of the prostate in 2001 and uh it was found to be inoperable because it had spread outside the prostate itself what they call Advanced local disease uh but still local and uh various friends of mine encouraged me to seek alternative treatments to um boost my immune system improve my well-being and um reflexology was one of the suggestions that were made and so I inquired after a local reflexologist and I was put in touch with Viv and it has been a very happy relationship for I would guess at least eight years now I mean when I first started having it it was a rather bizarre um treatment I never had anything like it I'd had um acupuncture on a sore knee um about I suppose 10 years before that um I don't think that was very successful as it happened and suddenly I find myself having reflexology and having my feet squeezed and I was very um I found it enthralling I never expected reflexology to cure my disease um what I was was hoping for and what I believe has happened is that reflexology makes you feel better the the link between the uh the SES of your feet and the rest of your body and the impact that it has I found very interesting indeed um what has it done for me it simply places me at ease I think there is no doubt one feels a bit better having had a reflexology session I've never come out of one uh feeling worse than when I went in and certainly when I've had a reflexology session I feel more relaxed there's no doubt about that I it's fit on every occasion I just I feel a little bit better it gives me a boost put it that way you feel just at ease I think is probably the best way of putting it
