Reflexology is shown to be clinically and statistically significant in reducing pain

Recent randomized controlled trials (RCT) which are the Gold Standard of clinical research, have shown that Reflexology was both clinically and statistically significant in reducing pain. The analgesic effects of Reflexology was shown to be between 42% to 48% more effective in reducing pain, compared to the standard of care group.

The most significant pain reduction in the reflexology group was observed among patients who had moderate‐severe baseline pain. Study participants included patients who were admitted to the general surgery department. The paper, published last year by the University of Haifa, goes on to conclude that: "Adding reflexology to standard analgesic care is effective in reducing postoperative pain at rest and in motion, especially for patients experiencing moderate to severe pain".

City Marshall is a growing practise offering complementary and holistic therapy along side sports massage therapy. The practise, which is based in Cardiff city centre, originally started out in 1998 and has many years of experience in the field of Oriental therapies, with dry and fully clothed (oil-free) Thai and Shiatsu Acupressure being specialities.

City Marshall prides itself in giving its clients the full freedom to choose any combination of treatments they desire during a specific session. The times when one was faced with a ‘full body’ or ‘half body’ specific massage during a strict time limit are now truly over. City Marshall encourages its clients to experiment with two or three therapies in a single session, which will actually compliment and enhance each other.

City Marshall provides clients with a professional and therapeutic massage and has a fully functional treatment centre, including on-site PARKING as well as full DISABLED access.

The highly specialised combination of Oriental along side conventional massage therapies help clients achieve the maximum out of their limited stay. The service is designed to repair, revitalise, uplift, re-energize or simply de-stress and relax their clients.

City Marshall specialises in tailor made aromatherapy products and is a reliable source of organic, SLS free, alcohol free and paraben free products. They will tailor make practically any cosmetic product to suit your individual health needs, from liquid soaps, shampoos, gels, creams, body lotions, facial creams, aftershave gels, deodorants and many more. City Marshall specialise in generating kitchen and bathroom air disinfectants which are not merely health-conscious, but also actually benefit your particular health needs. These products are designed for clients only and can be prescribed only after a comprehensive health consultation. The products are available exclusively at City Marshall.

Their ability to practice practically all massage routines while their client remains fully clothed is certainly a huge advantage. This enables achieving maximum benefits while fully utilising even a short time spent.
