I am a firm believer in reflexology. I have kept a laminated chart in the house for years so we can identify problems.What do you think about reflexology?
Reflexology isn’t a massage, it is finding the problematic areas and really digging in on them to stimulate those particular nerves which in turn stimulate the organs and other areas that are attached to the inflamed nerves. This would naturally happen if we were walking barefoot, but we don’t nowadays. Ray Peat said massage can actually make a person sick because of the lactic acid it creates. Massage feels good, reflexology doesn’t feel good. Those knots feel like rocks and can be pretty painful to unlock.How can a simple foot&hand massage feel so good? Sometimes also head massage. I want to understand this.
For me the “true”, proof, is in personal results, though reflexology has been around for centuries…In order to talk of “the difference” in a meaningful way, we first must inquire whether the foundations of reflexology (i.e. the foot reflexology charts you shared) are true or not (and to what degree they correspond to reality); how and why they originated, the conditons in which they originated, the data, testimonials, reviews, analyses etc.
My aim in creating this thread is to find these out.
It relieved an extreme panic attack where I couldn’t breath, which my knot was connected to my adrenals. My son had chronic stomach aches, that were keeping him out of school, and a reflexology session cured him. We had a lady come to our house and treat all of us one day and just by finding the knots in each of our feet she predicted what each of us were struggling with. It is pretty amazing stuff. I like chiropractic care over medical “bandaids”, as it has cured my son’s asthma, but the neck manipulation makes me nervous, and has backfired on people I know. I have nothing but positive to say about reflexology. It is very gentle.You may start by sharing your experience with it, something worthy of appreciation.
That’s interesting, yours too but especially curing your son’s stomach aches and asthma. How long did the each session last? Are the “knots” similar to the kind of knots people sometimes have on their shoulders? Like the knots move when circular or straight lined pressure is applied with fingers.It relieved an extreme panic attack where I couldn’t breath, which my knot was connected to my adrenals.

The chiropractic session cured my son’s asthma, in just one session. He was on Albuterol for years and never again after that appointment. In reflexology the knots are like little pebbles, really really hard and really painful when the reflexologist rubs it. They are in deep. It is the end of the inflamed nerve. The ones in shoulders are muscles knotted up, totally different. A reflexologist works the nerve and it sends a signal back to wake up the area the nerve is attached to.That’s interesting, yours too but especially curing your son’s stomach aches and asthma.

I will!I’ll research this more when I have time, thanks for sharing. @Rinse & rePeat feel free to share info about reflexology in this thread. I appreciate it.
