What Is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a unique method of using the thumb and fingers to stimulate more than 7,200
nerve endings in each foot. These nerve endings correspond to all parts of the body, including
organs and glands. Stimulating the appropriate region is intended to eliminate energy blockages
thought to produce pain or disease in the related areas. Reflexology is used to prevent, rather
than cure, and is used to relieve a wide variety of ailments.
What Are Some Specific Conditions Where Reflexology Might Be Helpful?
Allergies and Sinus Problems, Arthritis, Backache and Sciatica, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome,
Constipation, Headaches, Migraines, High Blood Pressure, Insomnia, Menstrual Cramps,
Premenstrual Syndrome, and Stress.
How Frequently Should I Have A Reflexology Treatment?
Once a week is normal; an extreme case would be twice a week. The body needs time to
normalize between treatments. Reflexology also works wonderfully in conjunction with other
body therapies. You should wait about a week between therapies to avoid overloading the
body.
A minimum of 4 sessions is recommended to experience the desired therapeutic effect.
