Reflexology is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that involves applying light pressure to specific points on the feet. These points correspond to different organs and systems in the body. By stimulating these reflex points reflexology encourages the body’s natural ability to relax, self-regulate, and restore balance.
At Zen Llamas we specialize in reflexology for children creating a safe, playful, and nurturing environment where kids can experience deep calm while their bodies process emotions.
Children often hold stress, worry, or big emotions in their bodies. Reflexology can help release tension and support overall wellbeing. Research and clinical experience show that reflexology can:
Regulating the Nervous System by supporting the body’s ability to calm the fight–flight–freeze response, helping children feel safer and more grounded.
Support Emotional Regulation for children with ADHD, anxiety, or sensory overwhelm can find relief through the gentle rhythmic touch.
Improving Sleep and Relaxation. Many children sleep better and feel calmer after reflexology sessions.
Aiding in Digestion and Immunity. Reflexology stimulates systems that support gut health and immune function.
Enhancing Body Awareness. Children develop a sense of connection to their own bodies, learning to recognize and release tension.
Each reflexology session is adapted to the child’s age and needs:
Welcoming & Centering:
We create a calm, safe space, often using mindfulness or soft music to help the child settle.
Gentle Reflexology:
Using hands to stimulate reflex points on the feet, the therapist works intuitively with the child’s responses, applying gentle and soothing pressure.
Integration & Play:
Children may be invited to express themselves through movement, drawing, or quiet play afterward integrating the experience.
Parent Feedback:
Parents receive guidance on simple exercises or reflex points they can use at home to support their child’s calm.
Reflexology for children is safe, enjoyable, and deeply restorative. Giving kids a practical tool for self-regulation and resilience.

Parenting can be physically and emotionally demanding. Parents often carry stress in their bodies—from muscle tension to disrupted sleep—and this affects how they respond to their children. Reflexology helps parents release stress and restore balance. Supporting both physical and emotional wellbeing.
