Helping patients achieve their personal health and wellness goals
Hi, I'm Jasmine. I've been a registered professional reflexologist in Johannesburg since 2015.
My passion is helping patients achieve their health and wellness goals. It is important to me that my treatment space allows people a safe space to just decompress and feel better when they leave my practice room than when they arrived.
I love practising reflexology not only because it's a great healing tool, but because of the benefit I see that it has on my patients.
I believe that we need to invest in our health and well-being - reflexology and other therapies are just tools to facilitate and optimise well-being - we need to lay the foundations.
I strongly believe in "practising what I preach" and being realistic when it comes to health and wellbeing. This means following eating a mostly wholefoods diet, but also having a slice of cake or indulgence on occasion. Working out and keeping consistent, even if it's just 5 minutes of mobility on a time pressure day.
And it also means looking after your mental wellbeing and constructive rest. It's what we do consistently that makes the difference.
Jasmine Steyn qualified as a therapeutic reflexologist in 2015 and has worked in private practice and corporate environments, getting involved in corporate wellness days and community service projects.
Jasmine uses reflexology methods to treat and support all conditions, including but not limited to stress-related conditions, compromised immunity, nervous system-related issues, insomnia, pain management, and fertility-related issues.
With a passion for finding the best treatment protocols for her patients using nutrition, reflexology techniques, and complementary and holistic healing modalities, Jasmine ensures that all her patients are treated with the best-personalised care and individualised treatments.
Applying pressure with massage-like techniques on specific points on the feet that correspond to organs and body parts.
Pressure is applied with massage-like techniques to specific points on the hands. This treatment is used when the foot cannot be worked on, or the patient needs extra TLC.
The Vacuflex boot provides a 'mini' reflexology treatment. Once the boot is removed, different colours appear on the feet, indicating the state of the organs/body parts (acidity, inflammation, acute/chronic pain, low oxygen levels). The second part of this treatment involves applying suction cups to specific meridian points for a short period. This helps stimulate the specific energy pathways.

From a reflexology point of view, an assessment of the feet forms a valuable and important part of the case history. It might indicate key markers that the patient forgot to mention, didn't think were important enough, or was not even aware of.
Whether you pass on your report to another reflexologist or holistic health practitioner, it can give them insight into the finer details of your case history.
What do I need from you?
For the report, you would need to provide me with clear photos of your feet, including the tops, bottoms, and sides of both feet. I will then provide you with a written interpretation of your physical and internal stress patterns based on Reflexology theory.
What is a Foot Reading Analysis?
Foot reading interprets your physical, psychological, and internal stress patterns based on Reflexology theory. A foot assessment is done with every reflexology treatment, but a foot reading analysis, where I provide you with a full report, is much more thorough and provides both the therapist and patient with more information. Please note that a foot reading analysis is NOT a psychic reading.
Your feet reflect how life has affected your body and mind. Awareness is an important factor in facilitating the healing process. Foot reading is not a diagnosis, but it can help you understand your strengths and weaknesses and what stress patterns have formed throughout your life.
Please contact me if you have any questions about the foot reading analysis or want to see an example report.

Reflexology is a holistic therapy that promotes health and well-being. It stimulates the body’s self-healing mechanisms and eliminates toxins.
Specific reflex points on the feet (hands, ears and other body parts) correspond to specific organs, systems and body parts. Stimulating these points increases blood flow to these areas, optimising their function.
Some of the benefits of reflexology include:
- Helps the achieve homeostasis (or balance) in the body
- Supports a healthy immune system
- Supports healing processes
- Hormonal balance and regulation
- Helps alleviate pain
- Improves mental functioning
- Promotes relaxation and helps to counteract the effects of stress.
Reflexology balances the body's energy, improving health and well-being and allowing the body to heal itself and eliminate toxins. Applying pressure and stimulating the reflexes increases blood flow to the corresponding organs and parts of the body.
This, in turn, optimises nutrient and oxygen flow to those parts of the body. This improves the body’s ability to heal itself. It differs from an ordinary massage because a reflexology treatment stimulates specific reflexes and nerve endings, whereas a massage only stimulates the deep tissue.
Some reflex areas of the feet may be more sensitive than others. This usually occurs when there is an imbalance in the body, congestion or weakness of the organ, or if the person has had an operation in that area.
During the initial consultation, medical, lifestyle, and dietary questions are asked. The treatment consists of relaxation techniques and stimulation of the reflexes with a nerve- and reflex-stimulating massage.
Some therapists may also include a Vacuflex concepts treatment. The treatment ends with more relaxation techniques and the use of essential oils.
Feedback should be given at the end of the session. Please follow up with your therapist and note any affects you may experience for the next few hours after the treatment.
To facilitate the detox process, it is recommended that you drink a glass of water with lemon or a cup of herbal tea after a reflexology session.
After a reflexology session, people may experience certain effects as their bodies detox. Some effects may include headaches, increased need to urinate or have bowel movements, nausea, temporary outbreaks of disease, tiredness, improved sleep patterns, a change in mood, and feeling calm and relaxed.
As your body becomes more balanced, the ‘negative’ symptoms will lessen and eventually disappear, depending on how much congestion there is in the body. The effects of reflexology differ from person to person. The reflexologist is the tool to facilitate the body’s healing process.
The body prioritises what healing needs to be done first. The more congestion one has built up, the longer it may take to find the root cause of total body healing.
