reflexology: according to reflexology, on the sole of the
feet there are points that “reflect” all of the
various parts of the human body and its physiological functions.
When these functions are blocked or altered, there are also
zones of tension and pain on the corresponding parts of the
foot. The massing arch support, deep and relaxing, relieves
these tensions and contributes to the recovery of a healthy
organism. It is particularly beneficial on sore feet and
for circulation problems, tensions and heaviness on the lower
limbs.
The Zone Reflex Massage of the foot is
an antique method, transposed into a scientific form by Doctor
Fitzgerald in the beginning of the 20th Century and later
broadened and studied in-depth by E. Ingham. Through the
manual therapy of massage on the reflex points, ascertainable
effects are produced in various parts of the body, with extraordinary
results.
Foot Reflexology is an energetic technique that,
by applying a stimulating massage in precise points on the
foot, has an effect on various organs of reactivating their
functions and restoring equilibrium.
Each point of the foot is united by way
of a nerve terminal and a specific nerve-center on the spine,
that is connected to each organ. In this regard, a therapist
can diagnose ailments by examining the reflex points on the
foot and can further stimulate the healing and return to
correct functioning of the organs by applying massage treatments
to these corresponding points.
Foot Reflexology is an antique and beneficial
technique that is still practiced in the Orient today. In
the Occidental world, it was only just discovered in the
20th Century.
Foot Reflexology is based on the fact that
the feet have terminals that react to corresponding points
throughout the body.
Let’s imagine two feet, one next
to the other, now superimpose the image of a human body over
them: this is the correspondence of the feet and relative
organs. The human body is a mechanism of delicate equilibrium
in which all functions work in a combined effort for the
common purpose of keeping the body healthy: maintaining equilibrium
is pertinent to the blood flow and the optimisation of the
harmony within each organ and gland.
Foot Reflexology provides an intervention
of extreme efficiency that restores general equilibrium,
relaxing and toning the body as well as fighting against
pathologies of the system – cardiovascular, muscular,
lymphatic, nervous, gastrointestinal, reproductive, etc… -
with astonishing results.
Regarding the sexual sphere, foot reflexology
stimulates the zones of the uterus and vagina in points on
the back of the heel while, for the men, the upper part of
the heel can be massaged to stimulate and restore functions
of the testicles and penis.
For prostate problems and in
the case of uterine fibrosis, the two zones correspond and
are located on the internal superior part of the heel just
above the zone of the testicles and penis.
It is well understood how an accurate massage
in these zones can benefit the equilibrium of the libido,
decrease inflammation or adenomas of the prostate and benefits
problems like uterine fibromas. |
