Reflexology is another form of holistic massage therapy similar to Shiatsu a physical act of applying pressure to the feet and hands using specific thumb, finger and hand techniques, massaging certain areas of the body to encourage healing and relieve stress and tension. This form of massage therapy has been around for thousands of years. It is based on a system of zones and reflex areas, this bodywork involves application of pressure to specific reflex areas in the feet, hands, and ears which in theory have significant effects stimulating body organs and relieving areas of congestion.
Reflexology works with the body’s energy flow to stimulate self-healing and maintain balance in physical function to reduce pain, increase relaxation, and stimulate circulation of blood and lymphatic fluids. It can also help those who are suffering from menstrual disorders, sports injuries and tension headaches, arthritis, back pain, digestive disorders or problems, hormonal imbalance, insomnia. Reflexology, however, is recommended only as complementary therapy and should never replace medical treatment for any specific diagnoses.
Women who are pregnant or attempting to get pregnant, injury or blood vessel disease as well as diabetes with significant peripheral artery disease should talk to their doctor before seeing a reflexologist and also let the reflexologist know. You must never go for reflexology if you have foot ulcers or blood clots.
Most people find Reflexology to be very relaxing and not painful. If this happens, you should tell the therapists because they should be working within your specific comfort zone. Some areas of the feet may be tender or sore but the soreness should decrease with pressure and not increase while the therapist spends more time on these points.
Reflexology can be done at anytime and anywhere. Reflexology is another form of massage therapy you can try if you want to relieve tension from the body. A typical Reflexology treatment is usually 45 to 60 minutes long during which the individual remove their shoes and socks and sits in a reclining chair. At the end of each session, you should feel relaxed.
