Reflexology
was recorded 5,000 years ago in the Hei Jing, a Chinese
publication of the Hwang Dynasty and earlier in Egyptian
pictographs. It is considered a close cousin to acupressure,
a healing method used in Eastern countries where reflex
points corresponding to organs and limbs are manipulated
with pressure to achieve pain relief, rid the body of
toxins, repair tissue or increase circulation.
Reflexologists achieve the same results by manipulating
reflexes on the feet. A deep sense of relaxation accompanies
the session and encourages the body to release toxins and
generate a greater sense of well-being and balance of body
systems. It is considered beneficial for diabetics and those
with chronic pain. People need only remove shoes and socks
for the session.
Therapeutic touch for health has been shown to be an asset
for persons who have pain and there is no reason that touch
for health on the feet should be an exception.
There are 7,200 nerve endings in each foot. Perhaps this
fact more than any other explain why we feel so much better
when our feet are treated. Nerve endings in the feet have
extensive interconnections through the spinal column and
brain with all areas of the body, which is why reflexology
qualifies as an important adjunct for health care.
Reflexology on the feet stands the test of patient
acceptance as a valid means of making one feel good.
Relaxing and functioning better than he/she otherwise would
feel. Reflexology is one of the real natural alternatives
that is being used today.
Reflexology improves nerve function and blood supply. It's
great for sciatica nerve condition or to relieve tension
from the body and helps the body to establish homeostasis in
order to seek a natural balance between the systems.
Overactive glands or organs can be helped to return to
normal function and conversely, if an organ or a gland is
under active, reflexology can help return it to its normal
functioning level.
Approximately 75% of today’s diseases are attributable to
stress and tension. Various body systems are affected in
different ways and to varying degrees. Reflexology can be a
great help for these problems.
