Foot Reflexology
Foot Reflexology
30 minutes for $60 + HST
Reflexology is a complementary therapy rooted in ancient practices that applies different amounts of pressure to the feet. It is known to provide pain and stress relief, among other health benefits.
Reflexology is based on the principle that certain points on your feet correspond to different organs and systems of the body. By applying gentle pressure to these reflex points, practitioners aim to stimulate healing processes, improve circulation, and reduce stress.
During a reflexology appointment, the practitioner will use their thumbs, fingers, or specialized tools to apply varying degrees of pressure on specific points on your foot. During the appointment, many people report feeling deep relaxation or even sleepiness as tension is released from the body.
Afterwards, it’s normal to feel both relaxed and energized, as blood flow improves and toxins are flushed out through lymphatic drainage stimulation. Occasionally, mild soreness or tiredness can occur but usually passes quickly.
At Footcare on Bay we are a health-forward clinic that provides professional footcare in a clean, clinical setting. While we are grateful for your appreciation, we kindly ask that you do not tip.
Our team is fairly compensated, and your continued support and referrals are all the tip we need.
Reflexology at FootCare on Bay: Restoring Balance in Toronto’s Busy Core
At FootCare on Bay, located in the heart of Downtown Toronto, reflexology is more than a wellness trend – it’s an intentional practice designed to restore balance and calm in daily life. In a city where long commutes, desk jobs, and constant screen time leave people tense and drained, reflexology offers a way to pause, reset, and gently guide the body toward its own healing rhythm.
The Principles Behind Reflexology
Reflexology is based on the idea that the feet serve as a map of the body.
- Specific zones on the foot connect to organs, glands, and body systems such as digestion, breathing, and sinuses.
- Controlled pressure on these reflex points can release blockages, improve circulation, and restore harmony.
It is not a substitute for medical care – instead, it works as a complementary therapy to support stress relief, discomfort management, and overall wellness.

What Our Customers Say
I recently visited Footcare on Bay to get custom orthotics, and they’ve been life-changing. Dr. Ray took the time to carefully assess my needs, explain everything in detail, and answer all of my questions. The orthotics I received have made a huge difference in my daily life—my foot pain is practically gone, and I feel so much more comfortable whether I’m walking, standing, or exercising. If you’re looking for quality care and real results, Footcare on Bay is the place to go.
A year ago, I dropped a coffee cup on my toe, and it turned into a pain-in-the-toe nightmare with an ingrown toenail. After several appointments with Dr. John Ray, we finally decided to "take care of it" once and for all. I was terrified - like, sweaty-palms, full-on panic mode- but Dr. Ray was a total pro.
I’m so thankful for Dr. Ray’s skill and ability to make me feel relaxed and comfortable. Highly recommend him to anyone who needs toe TLC (and a calming presence to stop you from hyperventilating in the chair).
I have had an aggressive form of an ingrown toenail for many years. I've been to many hospitals, many hours of waiting & no doctor would help me. Dr. Ray did a awesome job, I highly recommend him.
My father has been to multiple foot clinics and his foot pain still persisted. Was recommended by one of his friends and I brought him in. I explained the frustrations to the doctor there and I appreciate his honesty and care for my father. He tried other methods to help with recovery and 3 weeks in, so far so good.
Highly recommended!
I hobbled into the clinic with terrible pain in my left foot . After 8 hours of Dr Ray's treatment, l was pain-free and walking normally. I am very grateful for Dr. Ray's expertise and care.
I came in a few weeks a go regarding my severe heel pain that I’ve been dealing with for over a year now. I saw Dr. Ray who examined my issue and scheduled me for a series of shockwave treatments followed by fitting for Custom Orthotics. I now walk pain free! Highly recommend for anyone suffering from foot pain.
I had heel pain and Dr. Ray made my Orthotics and it fixed my foot pain. Excellent service!
After a really bad experience at another clinic, I came here for orthotics and although I don’t have them yet, it was a great experience and look forward to working with this place!.
I have been coming for years to Footcare on Bay for my orthotics. Despite a recent change in ownership, their commitment to customer service and satisfaction continues to be unparalleled. If there is an issue with your orthotic, they will move heaven and earth to make it right. That kind of customer service is rare these days. Great orthodics, great staff, great customer service.
