Reflexology and Back Pain

Hello everyone

For a change I thought I would write a few words about back pain and how it may be relieved through the use of various complementary therapies I have studied and found to be of use with such problems as back pain and how they fit into the general idea of Back Pain Loss.

Reflexology was one of the first therapies I studied and as a student proved its use when dealing with back pain. particularly sciatic nerve pain. As many of you probably know reflexology is a system of applied pressure to various points on the foot and hand. These points or reflex points, correspond to organs, bones, muscles even the eyes, ears and teeth. So by applying pressure across the whole foot and ankle you may give a vitalising treatment to the whole body, or just choose a specific area. We were warned about the sexual reflex areas and the consequences of working to hard there, for instance.

The reflex points for the spine was the inside of the foot, on each foot and by working from the base of the big toe to the heel of the foot I was able to help people with back pain, as explained at www.backpainloss.com. As a general treatment Reflexology is relaxing and invigorating and I have made some discoveries that were later born out by medical diagnosis.

As an aid in back pain relief I have found Reflexology to be effective with the added advantage of being non instrusive and a client only has to take off their shoes and socks.

So if you have a Reflexologist near you, give them a try.
