Doesn’t Reflexology concern either the hands or the feet?The hands and the feet and the ears and the tongue. Reflexology can be used to relax the mind and the body. It can be used to improve circulation, and the removal of toxic waste from the body, relive stress and tensions relieve head and muscle aches and improve your energy levels. It can bring back an overall feeling of well being and it can also aid in delivering babies. It is not invasive and is relatively gentle. Let’s say an organ in the body that is out of balance and may be afflicted with dis-ease. Once it is hit it will bring you right up off the table. It is going to become less and less acute or sensitive. In other words this requires a number of treatments. You don’t pop a pill. Let’s say you have insomnia and you have to get to the root of it.
Here is a way of putting this into a picture that the layperson can grasp. Let’s say you are adding pressure that would correspond to a certain area in the body. Look at it like a water hose and you have an obstruction in it. If you were to apply pressure above where the obstruction were and kinked it off and held it till sufficient pressure would build up behind it that when you released it the water would come through ten times the pressure it normally would, and it would push along that blockage till normal flow had resumed. That is like acupressure works except that it is a localized pinpoint massage.
Now some of the things that it has been used to address are renal failure, diabetes, asthma, breast cancer, intestinal problems, back aches, pms, and this is all documented. The problem with allopathic medicine is the things that they don’t see they just don’t get. That doesn’t mean that they aren’t there.
Benefits of Reflexology by Kelly-Sue Chobotiuk
Stress Relief-counteracts the effects of stress and helps the body relax
Works on the nervous system-thus effecting the muscles
Unblocks the energy in the nerves- there are 7,000 nerves in the feet that effect your entire body
Improves circulation-it is essential for blood to circulate and reach every cell; the blood carries nutrients and oxygen to the tissues. When we become stressed, breathing becomes shallow and circulation is sluggish. Reflexology encourages a steady blood flow to and from the heart.
Detoxify and Cleanse-eliminates toxins
Body system balancer-every part of the body is interconnected, so when there is imbalance in one area, it leads to an imbalance in another.
Pain Relief-by unblocking the pathways where energy may be stuck, and balancing the energy in the rest of the body, reflexology can effectively relieve pain and send healing energy to the rest of the body.
Nurtures loving relationships- Encourages a safe and trusting touch. The power of touch can bring loved ones closer together.
