Reflexology therapy is based around the belief
that parts of the feet and hands
connect to body parts close to the same area.
When applying certain manipulation a reflexology masseur
can help reduce stress
in other bodily areas.
Reflexology is a complementary therapy where the hands and feet are worked on
to assist in healing the patient wholely rather than just focus on the symptoms.
A recent study from The far east supports the idea that hand and foot massage may be particularly helpful for patients suffering with rectal prolapse.
Foot massage therapy could aid in reducing the
pain experienced by those
with bronchitis.
Like many alternative therapys,
all reflexology is holistic as it treats the body as a whole.
After a reflexology session try to take a minute or so to relax and benefit from the treatment and try to ensure large amounts of fresh water is drunk.
