Episode 136: The Hot Flush Off Switch Is Above Your Lip with Georgina Strickland

Your feet carry you all day, but what if they are also quietly reporting on how you’re coping? We sit down with Georgina Strickland from Lifespan Reflexology to unpack what reflexology actually is, why it has roots stretching back thousands of years, and how a skilled practitioner can use mapped pressure points on the feet and face to support your whole system without making medical claims. If you’ve ever wondered how stress shows up in the body, or why you feel different after a truly relaxing treatment, this chat makes it make sense.

We go deep on women’s health, from Georgina’s own fertility journey into practice, to the way many clients use foot reflexology and facial reflexology for perimenopause and menopause symptoms. We talk hot flushes, night sweats, anxiety, sleep, brain fog, and why the parasympathetic nervous system is at the centre of feeling better. Georgina also explains how facial reflexology works closer to the brain and central nervous system, why that can be a great alternative if you hate people touching your feet, and how a little self-care “map” between sessions can speed up results.

You’ll also hear two simple facial reflexology points you can try at home, plus the bigger takeaway we keep coming back to: slowing down is not a luxury, it is essential.
