Hand reflexology
>
Reflexology is a technique that involves applying some force, pressure or massage of specific body parts, in the particular case of the hands is done in the right places due to the discovery of links between these areas and physiological functions. We have studied their practical applications with energy flows, as these play an active role in this therapy (as a link between the body parts and internal interconnections).
Through this therapy, hand reflexology can relieve pain, eliminate toxins accumulated improperly (stimulating the area of the pancreas and kidneys), prevents inflammation and fluid retention (with the help of the lymphatic area), gastric complications, immune deficiencies (to be more susceptible to external agents such as viruses, bacteria and fungi), respiratory problems (cough, asthma, bronchitis, etc..) among many others. Its effectiveness is widely proven, as this technique is used for many years and is also enhanced with the application of other techniques of Chinese medicine (herbal teas, acupuncture, etc.).
The zones are divided as to stimulate different from both the left and the right hand and yet not control the same areas (eg pacing area is only in the left hand).
Generally this practice is performed by qualified personnel as reflexology points are very accurate and defined and it requires prior knowledge to obtain the expected results.
Pressure or movement is done with the thumb and forefinger, working at each point at least 30 seconds, reflexology can be applied to people of any age, there is only counter when made wounds, burns, severe inflammation , venous problems (hands) or cases of pregnancy.
