We have collated collective preliminary studies showing the positive response foot reflexology can provide. Explore foot reflexology, a complementary therapy that may hold promise in alleviating some of Singapore’s top chronic conditions.
Foot reflexology is a form of alternative therapy that involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet. The underlying theory is that these points, known as reflex zones or reflex points, correspond to different organs and systems in the body.
By stimulating these reflex points, it is believed that the corresponding organs and systems can be positively affected, promoting overall health and well-being.
During a typical treatment by The OutCall Spa reflexologist, the reflexologist looks for tenderness and other symptoms on the feet, hands, and ears. You sit or recline comfortably while the reflexologist manipulates these areas, releasing blockages, restoring the proper flow of blood, energy and stimulating healing.
For example, if you have back pain, the arches of your feet are manipulated. If you have a headache, nausea or insomnia, tender areas in the web between the thumb and forefinger are squeezed or pinched. The frequency of treatments depends on your condition.
Reflexology treatment can relieve you from a wide range of conditions, including:
One of the most notable benefits of foot reflexology is its potential to reduce pain associated with chronic conditions. Studies have suggested that reflexology can effectively alleviate pain in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, and cancer. By targeting specific reflex points on the feet, reflexologists aim to stimulate corresponding organs and systems, which may help alleviate pain and promote overall well-being.
In today’s fast-paced society, chronic stress has become a prevalent concern in Singapore which can lead to depression, insomnia, and more. Foot reflexology offers a soothing experience that promotes relaxation and helps reduce stress and anxiety. The reflexologist aims to restore balance in the body’s systems by activating reflex points, resulting in a more relaxed and peaceful state.
While there have not been conclusive results in the diabetes study, attributing the improvement to capillary blood glucose, feet tissue temperature, and foot plantar pressure, the study observed that after 12 sessions of the tested therapy, the treated group presented more “normal” results.
Improving blood circulation is crucial for managing chronic conditions like diabetes and peripheral arterial disease. A much recent study does show that reflexology has a positive effect on blood flow, potentially benefiting individuals with these conditions. Reflexologists aim to enhance blood circulation and promote overall health by stimulating reflex points associated with the circulatory system.
Cancer treatment can be physically and emotionally taxing. Foot reflexology is often used as a complementary therapy alongside conventional cancer treatments to provide additional support. Studies by Cancer Research UK suggested that reflexology can improve the quality of life and alleviate symptoms in cancer patients. Reflexologists are to work in conjunction with healthcare professionals to provide a holistic approach to cancer care.
While further research is still needed to establish the effectiveness of foot reflexology for specific chronic conditions in Singapore, preliminary findings show promise. Foot reflexology may offer pain relief, stress reduction, improved circulation, and complementary support for cancer patients.
Chronic conditions can vary widely, and the effectiveness of foot reflexology may differ from person to person. Suppose you are considering foot reflexology as a complementary therapy. In that case, consulting with our qualified reflexologist and discussing it with your healthcare provider is vital to ensure it aligns with your overall treatment plan.
Remember, each person’s journey toward well-being is unique, and a collaborative approach between healthcare professionals and complementary therapists can provide the most comprehensive care.
The Outcall Spa’s expert services provide convenience right to your doorstep, providing wellness to your healthcare planning.
