Are aches, pains and other general discomforts preventing you from living your life to the fullest?
There is an easy way to alleviate these ailments, and you do not have to pay for any expensive treatments to do it. Reflexology is used to defuse tensions through massage techniques.
By learning about the nerves that correspond to various illnesses, it is easy to apply pressure to a crucial point yourself or by someone else.
The next time you experience any of the following issues, you will be able to assuage the tension on your own instead of resorting to medication or doctor appointments.
Back Pain
In the event of back troubles, rub half of the width of your foot where the leg is in contact with the foot. You can also rub the bottom of your thumb and then move toward the wrist.
Headache
If intense pain is prevalent in your head, make circular movements on your big toes. Slowly, you can start to apply even more pressure on the upper halves of all your toes in order to find the precise nerve that is connected to the source of the discomfort. Massaging the upper halves of your fingers has also been known to work in some scenarios.
Bronchitis
In order to alleviate discomfort caused by bronchitis, try massaging the width of each foot an inch below the toes. These nerves are connected to the lungs, and you should also try massaging just below the joints of your hands.
Flu/Cold
It seems like there will never be an end-all cure for the common cold, but you can reduce some of the unpleasantness by massaging the middle of your toes, just below your toes with particular focus on the side of your big toes.
Sleeping Disorders
The pituitary gland is generally associated with sleeping problems, so apply pressure to the sides of yoru fingernails. The lower side of your big toe in the middle should also have your attention. These points target your endocrine system and can assist you in getting a good night’s rest.
Digestion
To ease digestion problems, you are going to need a small ball. Place the ball in your palm, close your fingers and rub the lower third of your feet. Continue rubbing for a minute to see if there are any improvements.
Stress
Stress is a natural part of your life, but you can reduce its prevalence by creating a circle around your wrist with your forefinger and thumb. Twist the hand encased by the circle back and forth twenty times.
If you are unsure if you are performing a reflexology technique correctly, visit a reflexologist. He or she can perform some techniques on you so that you get a sense of how it should feel like, and you will be better prepared to do these practices on your own.
