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.

Reflexology, an alternative therapy treatment, is regarded by many as a natural healing art. It involves the use of pressure to one’s feet and hands at certain points that coordinate with body parts. These points are defined by a chart which divides the feet and hands into sections which affect a particular body part. This form of therapy has been around for hundreds of years in one form or another. There is evidence that this was used by the ancient Egyptians due to a wall

One of the most common complaints about flying is blocked ears and painful sinuses.

Arthritis is one of the most common illnesses that we usually have to endure once we reach the age of 40 to 60 years old. It is described as an excruciating pain in the muscles and joints which can sometimes lead to immobilization or inability to walk temporarily for days or even weeks. Most of our grandparents or old folks prefer to stay on a single floor of the house since it is difficult for them to move up and down the stairs going to different levels of the house. When o

Metamorphosis is a self-healing art and a philosophy on creating greater consciousness within. We use the concept of reflex points to address the unconscious genetic and karmic patterns that arrive at conception that create disease and disharmony in our lives and in our collective experience. As these patterns change we experience greater awareness, better health, genuine relationships and less conflict in life. As we change the work around us changes.

Can you see it now? Another busy work day on your feet, and beyond… You speed walk down the aisle for that crucial purchase just before you pick the kids up from school—then hoof it out to car. You beat the clock just in time to take your lively treasures to their gymnastics practice at the Community Center (before more standing to make dinner). Your feet tell you, “Whoa!

Recently, reflexologists have renewed working with the hands as well as the feet. Evidence shows that hand and foot reflexology were both practiced since ancient times. An Egyptian papyrus dated 2330 B.C. clearly depicts both. It was primarily the teaching of Eunice Ingham in the U.S.A. that ...

A seriously ill person investigating reflexology for the first time asked tentatively, “Do you think reflexology can heal me?” I answered her loaded question, “Reflexology cannot heal anyone.

Metamorphosisr Creating Healthier Relationships and Greater Well-Being by Cindy Silverlock (c) Metamorphosis is a unique perspective born from the observation that we have never changed our underlying patterns of tension.

Many of you will have heard of a natural therapy called ‘reflexology’, and you will probably know that it involves some kind of treatment of the feet. The therapy has gained something of a reputation for being able to bring on labour, and frequently, it is only at this stage that pregnant women call a reflexologist for help! The flip-side of this reputation is that sometimes there is a wariness of reflexology before late pregnancy, especially during the first trim

Many people struggle to survive without realizing they have the power within to create change.

Water…Just Do It! Sharing reflexology puts me in a unique position to see the visible and tell-tale effects of dehydration on a pair of feet. When I ask people how much water they drink every day, the typical answer is almost always, “Not enough.” We all instinctively know we don’t drink enough water! Reflexology stimulates the 15,000 nerve endings in the feet, and the lymphatic system begins to release the toxins into the body’s fluids. These toxins must be flushed

Somebody once told me that the best way to get out of your head is to concentrate on your feet. She then proceeded to talk about a meditation exercise for people with anxiety that suggests that they really think about their feet and how they feel while taking deep breaths. People with anxiety often feel like they can’t turn off their brains and over think everything that is going on in their lives. This technique allows them to take a moment to disconnect so that they can c

Reflexology 101 nnThe body has an innate ability to heal itself. In a world that's always in a rush and looking for quick fixes, we hinder the amazing healing ability of our own body.

Someone asked me recently what I held to be sacred. “Sacred” is defined as being reverently dedicated to a person, service or thing. That is how I view reflexology, the sacred art of acupressure on the sole of each foot to bring about balance and stress relief. Not only is this a part of the body that can be extremely sensitive and a reflection of the rest of the body, but it is usually a very private part, revealed only to those closest to that person. I hear so many peo

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

Reflexology has long been viewed by many Americans and medical professionals as little more than a foot massage. Recent scientific studies show that chronic pain, digestive disorders and other common health problems can be relieved through the use of reflexology. The science and study of today’s reflexology was developed by three medical doctors in the early 20th century and involves a unique pressure technique on “reflex maps”, which are three dimensional micro maps of the human body, found on the feet, hands and outer ears.

Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) affects approximately 2-4% of the population, predominantly women, according to the American College of Rheumatology. This makes it the second most common musculoskeletal system ailment with osteoarthritis taking first place.

This common and chronic condition typically is associated with fatigue and sleep disturbances.

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

Maybe this sounds like a day you've had recently. You have a big meeting at the office this morning...and the alarm didn't go off.

We are creative beings. From the day we are born, we dream and make sounds to please ourselves. As soon as we can hold a crayon – or some baby food – we draw.

And we create other human beings – our children – to create even more than we did. Creativity can be very fulfilling, often joyful, and there are tim

Our bodies are a little like machines. If we take care of them well, they are definitely going to serve us for longer than if we neglected them. This means that things such as having a healthy diet and exercising are not to be taken lightly. Reflexology is a form of therapy that offers a lot of benefits without any risks, but the one mistake that you should never make is to sacrifice the basics such as eating well and exercising just because you do reflexology regularly.

Each one of us goes through “darkness” at some point in our lives. We lose our direction and our compasses. We lose our connection to God/to the universe/to our inner source. How we lose our direction comes from certain situations, sometimes out of our control, and sometimes not, such as losing a job, losing a loved one either through death, or growing apart in a different direction. We feel that there is a piece of us that is missing or empty and the darkness grows within us. There is an emptiness that we can’t fill and sometimes cannot overcome.
