Foliage isn't essential, but it does add to our design. However, it is not as easily sourced! Should you want to use foliage and you are blessed with a garden, you may be able to cut some that is suitable. we recommend camelia, pittosporum or vibernum at this time of year. We will be using eucalyptus cinerea. One bunch of 3 stems (which is plenty for what we'll be doing) is available for £4.99 at

An Introduction to Reflexology
Some hand cream or oil if you have it but reflexology can be done without anything.
Long nails can make it difficult to apply the reflexology techniques and it may feel uncomfortable so ideally keeping nails slightly shorter will improve your experience.
