Reflexology is a complementary therapy in which the practitioner applies pressure with the thumbs and fingers to specific points on the feet, and sometimes the hands, face or ears. It is based on the idea that these points map to other parts of the body. That theory is not supported by scientific evidence, but many clients find the treatment deeply relaxing and use it regularly to manage stress and sleep.
A session begins with a consultation about health and lifestyle, then the client lies or reclines fully clothed except for shoes and socks while the reflexologist works through each foot for most of the session. Pressure is firm but should not hurt. It is offered in holistic centres, day spas and some hospices and cancer support services, where it is valued as a comforting, non-invasive therapy.
A 45 to 60-minute session costs around £40 to £65 outside London and £60 to £90 in London. Look for a practitioner with a Level 3 diploma who is a member of the Association of Reflexologists or registered with the CNHC. Reflexology is not a substitute for medical care, and practitioners should not claim to diagnose or cure conditions.

The City Centre and the hotels around the canals sell spa days and day passes to conference guests and shoppers, and the large hotel and country-club spas near the airport and the NEC draw people from across the West Midlands for full spa days with lunch. Solihull has become a wellness destination of its own, with leisure clubs and spas offering memberships alongside treatments. The Jewellery Quarter is the creative end, with independent yoga and Pilates studios, a social sauna and small holistic practices in converted workshops.
