What Should You Expect From Reflexology

What Should You Expect From Reflexology. Although reflexology is proven to be beneficial for a multitude of problems, your reflexologist cannot diagnose or claim to cure any diseases.

They are not medically trained to do so. The practice of reflexology is meant to bring your body to a state of well-being. Only in this state is your body able to heal itself and perform at an optimal level.

If your body is full of toxins, your immune system is severely compromised, making you much more likely to succumb to sickness and disease. Once you have made the decision to visit a trained reflexologist, you may be wondering what you can expect from him or her.

You may also be asking yourself, what if I am embarrassed about my feet, or my feet are ticklish, how will I be able to handle the therapy? All of these are viable questions. As far as the appearance of your feet, dont worry about them. All feet are different and there is nothing to be ashamed about.

The only possible thing that might come up in direct relation to the appearance of your feet may be if you have a severe problem with corns or the like. In this case, your reflexologist may recommend treatment options. Ticklish feet are not usually a problem for a reflexologist.

Once pressure is applied, the sensation will quickly turn from a tickle to massage and you should be ok. Very, and I mean very few people that claim to have ticklish feet are unable to go through with the therapy. Your therapy session will begin with a questionnaire or one on one question and answer session.

This is, of course to get your personal history and determine where your therapy should be most concentrated.

For example, if you are going in suffering from frequent migraines and neck pain, your reflexologist will concentrate on the areas of the feet and sometimes the hands, in areas that deal with the head and neck.
