So true
As your reflexologist,….I’m observing and assessing your feet and so much more.
from the moment you walk in the door….
I’m observing ….
How you walk ….
Is there spring in your step or are you walking with pressure on your toes or heels….
The position of your head…. your eyes, your skin color, your tone of voice…
During your session, I’m assessing:
~Nail condition, color, and texture
~Skin condition (dryness, excess moisture, flaking, calluses, bunions, etc.)
~Bone structure and ankle alignment
~ The overall shape of your feet
~ How your feet rest when relaxed
~ Whether they tend to roll inward (pronation) or outward (supination)
~ Muscle tension within the feet
~ Deposits that can feel like tiny grains of sand or salt beneath the tissue (causes congestion to the nerve pathways)
~ Areas of tenderness or sensitivity
~The way you are breathing, are you breathing shallow, do you hold your breath at times.
I will pay close attention to the inside (medial) edge of both feet.
In reflexology, the medial edge
corresponds to the spine.
The spinal column has 4 natural curves when viewed from the side…. The feet also have 4 natural curves.
Misaligned vertebrae and curvatures of the spine will often be reflected in the feet with a noticeable change in the natural curves of the foot. How cool is that?!
The feet reflect areas that hold tension or imbalance throughout the body.
~Ankle mobility can provide additional clues.
Are they stiff and rigid, or flexible and mobile?
Sometimes this can be reflected in clients personality traits, are they flexible and easy going or more tense and stiff?
Every foot is unique, and each observation offers valuable information.
Even your ability to relax during a session can tell a story. (History / His - Story)
Reflexologists do NOT diagnose or treat for any specific conditions or dis-eases.
These are all simply clues that help a reflexologist gain a deeper understanding of what may be happening within your body and where it may need support.
