When a client comes for a session, you shouldn't have to convince them that your work is good. But you do have to go the extra mile to build "credibility" so they can immediately trust you. One of the easiest and most direct ways to do this - and grow your practice by leaps and bounds - is to ...

Reflexology, Stress and the Immune System This could be an article on any health paradigm – wellness or disease. That’s because the immune (a.k.a. the lymphatic) system is the first line of defense for all that ails us and keeps us well. Understanding the Immune System, Chronic ...

If you've ever doubted what these two little "Endocrine System Glands" can do, just watch the news sometime. Anytime you hear of some heroic headline – "Firemen Rush into Burning Building", or "Mother Lifts Car off Trapped Child"...the adrenal glands are implicated (such as in acts of strength ...

It seems to me that reflexology and working with the elderly is a match made in heaven. Alte atives to medications are always of interest because they are often safer and with fewer side effects. People usually seem rejuvenated after a reflexology session (and if they’re not, it’s because the body needed to rest a bit longer). Reflexology definitely shows results and it’s proven all the way back to ancient times. Not only have nursing homes accepted reflexology as a powerful complementary and alte ative therapy, reflexology has also found its place in eldercare and hospice.

I was just reviewing the tutorial I had this week with a student in my current Professional Reflexology Training Program. I love the laser focus that working one-on-one can give and, as always, huge improvements were achieved. Because this particular student is also a massage therapist, the conversation included not just the specifics of thumb walking and reflex point locations but also ergonomics –meaning the best posture and angle to sit and work to minimize stress on the body.r

I enjoy finding something new each week to bring to you. I love talking about the practical, the technical, the philosophical, but what I love the most are the moments in reflexology that bring me closer to spirit. I’m sure you know what I mean – when you realize in the midst of your reflexology session, there’s just a quiet calm. These are very special moments. It reminds me of when I was an artist – a painter. I still am, but I say, “I used to be an artist” because I haven’t painted a picture for a while.r

Before I get to the reflexes, I want to talk a little bit about the digestive system as a whole. The best place to start is with the first step in the digestive process. Believe it or not, it happens before you even taste your food. Just by smelling the aroma of mom’s homemade cherry pie or thinking about how delicious that salad is going to be, you start salivating – and the digestive process begins, preparing for that first scrumptious bite.r
