Reflexology and Common Conditions: Methodology, Technique, Physiology, and Symptomatology

In this book, you will learn about select diseases, their definitions, symptoms, types, and which reflex areas to address to help bring the body back into homeostasis. In so doing, the person receiving the reflexology session may tap into their magnificent well of healing potential.When we apply pressure to areas on the feet or hands that correspond to the various organs, glands, and internal and external structures of the body, we communicate directly with the person's nervous system. Specifically, a message is transmitted, letting the person know it is safe to relax and, should they choose, their body is ready to heal itself. In this way, a reflexologist, or a person providing reflexology, becomes a facilitator for the receiver’s healing process.This book provides important information about the anatomy and physiology of the human body and its systems. In addition, it shows how to harness this knowledge and apply it to the reflexology mapping system.It is my hope that this book provides you with greater knowledge and inspiration to help yourself and others. May you use this as a key to unlock what lies within you.“Reflexology and Common Condition: Methodology, Technique, Physiology, and Symptomatology is a 'must-have' comprehensive reference book to have in your toolbox!
