as a preventive and relaxing method, or as a way to
stimulate and enhance the health of the body in a simple way
affectionate.
What is Foot Reflexology

Foot reflexology is an ancient oriental technique of manual therapy, with


to which the self-healing of the organism is stimulated through the stimulation of zones
reflexes located in the feet. It is a holistic method, and very simple, that
consists of specific pressure in determined regions.

What are reflex zones?

Reflex zones are areas corresponding to parts of the body that are located in
diverse location. It's like a reflection in the mirror, a specific part of
body that reflects another. This happens due to the characteristics of the systems that
compose the man, mainly the peculiarities of the nervous system and
circulatory.

What do you mean by peculiarities?

The feet, like the other extremities, have nerve endings and
are a region of circulatory return. Gravity and a sedentary lifestyle due to
example, hinder venous and lymphatic return, and cause the deposition of
toxins, grouped in the form of crystals that can be perceived by touch,
further complicating the circulation and nutrition of the reflex organ, and in
consequently the overall functioning of the body.
The nerve endings, located in areas of the feet, are related to
parts of the body, which makes it possible to also notice changes in
balance of physical, emotional, and energetic health of specific parts through
of the foot reflex. This alteration of the nerve signals, whose endings are
interconnected to the body systems, also hinder the circulations in the
reflex regions.
The nervous, endocrine, and circulatory systems are essential to life.
and manual therapies, including reflex therapy, directly reach these
systems, stimulating the production of anti-stress hormones, stimulants of
self-love and self-esteem, calming the mind, activating the circulations and
releasing existing blockages, assisting the body to rid itself of what
it is not necessary, and to metabolize the accumulated waste more efficiently,
for they will be reduced to even smaller particles, and the circulatory flow will be
manually assisted. In foot reflexology, these stimuli will also be
more specific, since there is a microsystem that reflects on the feet, it is
as if we were massaging the organ itself, but in a reflex way.
The blockages can be perceived through painful or abnormal areas.
that does not always mean that a physical or organic imbalance is
installed more, an abnormal variation of the vibrations in the body area
corresponding to the foot reflex.
Foot Reflexology helps the flow of vital energy

Being an Eastern and holistic technique, it acknowledges the existence of energy.


that circulates through the body permeating all the cells and keeping us alive and
healthy. This energy is called Vital Energy. Physical diseases arise
they install when there is a vibration capable of disrupting the balance
natural of the body, or parts of it. The blockages can be detected through
of granular areas, small rigid regions and/or abnormally elevated, or
pain, as well as altered coloration and calluses. Vibrational alterations
can mean that a disease is about to come, or even that it has already existed and was
treated, but in the subtle body the area still needs care.
Benefits

Reflexology aids in the process of homeostasis, that is, in


self-regulation of the body, the attempt to stay healthy and balanced, and
can complement conventional treatments. The first result noted,
besides relaxation, it is the detoxification of the body: sweating, more trips to
bathroom, dark urine and nasal discharge are ways to eliminate excesses and the
that is not useful, and evidence of the benefits of reflex zone therapy. The
the body strengthens, and its ability to self-heal is enhanced. The feet
play an important role in the circulatory systems, improving
considerably the blood and lymphatic circulation. It is a technique that helps
to harmonize, to rebalance the functions of the systems, for example: if one
organ, gland, or viscera, if it is hypoactive or hyperactive, Reflexotherapy
acts in the 5 circuits of the body – blood, lymphatic, energy, nervous and
endocrine - harmonizing its functions through natural stimuli in the
reflex regions.

- This oriental therapy is capable of complementing practically any


treatment, not only body relaxation and mental well-being but also cystitis,
candidiasis, headache, depression, flu and colds, PMS, and any other
irregularity, but always as complementary therapy to the treatment
conventional. Never should any holistic technique replace consultation
medical and exams, for despite the numerous benefits, there is no way to
neither determine precisely the result we will have, nor diagnose.
The only possible diagnosis is the energetic/vibrational, where we can
verify and confirm which region is weakened and debilitated at the level
energetic; We know that many times we obtain healing with holistic therapies,
for before a disease establishes itself at the physical level, it arises in the subtle body;
restored and strengthened energy reorganizes and strengthens the cells so that
balance and health are achieved; but we cannot be irresponsible about
It is worth saying that a medical consultation and tests are not necessary, as the
conventional medicine usually provides us with reliable diagnoses, and it is
I need to investigate and rule out possibilities of more serious diseases that can be
including the need for surgical intervention. The treatments need to be
integrated, and man needs to be cared for at all levels.

In addition to health care, it is a pleasurable and effective therapy for


cases of tension and stress, factors responsible for a large part of diseases
to weaken the immune system, cause anxiety and other emotions
disturbing, that can often be combated and alleviated only with
a moment of self-care and relaxation. Reflexology
foot induces sleep, harmonizes the systems, improves circulation, calms the
the mind, and incites the body to self-heal.

Contraindications

There are some precautions we should take when using this technique:

– Do not apply it to people with cancer without authorization


doctor, since it activates circulation, it can stimulate the transport of
cancer cells and their deposition and permanence in other parts
on unaffected areas of the body, in this case, it is best to have a massage
be gentle on the reflex zones and use mental chromotherapy.
– Do not use foot reflexology in diabetics - it can
to cause a small injury due to misuse of the
technique, or incorrectly trimmed nails. The procedure can be
similarly for cases of cancer, gentle touches and mental chromotherapy.
– The region of the uterus, ovary, and pelvic area cannot be done in
pregnant women, and adolescents.
– One should not apply pressure to areas with varicose veins.
Symbolism of the feet

- Os pés simbolizam nossa consciência matricial. O chacra básico está ligado


at the feet. The feet are our roots in the earth, through them we absorb energy.
telluric. They represent the beginning, the birth, the connection with the mother and with the
children, with the origin, the past, and moving forward. The shape of our feet, the
calluses, and all the marks and structures reflect not only our
organism, but also our emotions and experiences. The feet are our
support in the world. Our pride, our fear, our affection, the way
how we face life... on our feet are recorded the marks of our self, of
our primitive energy.

Feet are often mistreated, which is a shame, because we have


the need for care starting from our roots, from our origin. The feet as
venous return point, as support of the body in the world, as a symbol of
our origins, represent a lot and are overlooked, just like everything that
it is basic, it is forgotten and relegated to a secondary plan: breathing and chewing
adequate, hours of sleep and biological rhythm respected, blood circulation and
lymphatic free of blockages; Try to breathe. Yes, breathe, slowly and
breathe deeply for 10 minutes and notice how you will feel afterwards. Try it.
chew slowly. Try to have the body free of blockages and the circulations
flowing unobstructed, from the foot base, and you will see how many benefits you can have
obtain only by allowing your body to function naturally.
The feet represent the beginning, but also the end. The energy circulation
it starts later, from the feet, goes up to the head, and descends to
reaching them again and continuing the energy orbit cycle. The blockages
physical issues also hinder energy circulation. Despite speaking in a way
dual, physical body and subtle body, they are one and interdependent. That is, the
subtle body was formed, and continues to be formed, from our
physical experiences. Taking care of the body also means taking care of the soul, as
We are in a stage of evolution and we need this denser clothing.
for our formation and development as spiritual beings. In the same
the physical body is formed from the energy that composes our body
less dense, revealing to matter the marks of our past history, from
our emotions, feelings, and thoughts. There is duality, because
we are in formation, and duality is part of a whole; we need the
duality to have balance, harmony, and growth. Just as
one end reflects the other - the feet reflect the body and the mind - the body
the spirit reflects and the spirit the matter.
Our emotional, psychological and spiritual balance also depends on
our rooting, of the balanced absorption of telluric energy, of our
matrix experiences and memories, of how we deal with the past, and
how we move forward. Therefore, it is from them, from the feet that we must
start taking care of our body.
Understanding the location of the foot microsystem

It's all quite simple, the right foot will reflect the right side of the body, and the foot
left the left side. The central line, the axis that divides the body into
left and right is the backbone, and its reflection is found on the side
internal of both feet. There are also transverse zones that divide.
horizontally as the reflex zones. Above line 1, are the reflections of part
in the lungs, shoulders, neck, head, eyes, etc. Between lines 1 and 2,
we found the corresponding reflexes in the areas that are between the waist
scapula and at the waistline: part of the lung, heart, stomach, liver, etc.
Between lines 2 and 3 are located the intestines, bladder, lower back and
pelvic, etc.

How to massage reflex areas - General rules

– Remember to have your nails trimmed, and to inform yourself


about the recipient's health conditions, to ensure that he
will be able to receive therapy.
– Wash your hands and feet that you will touch.
Use water and soap or a cotton pad moistened with 70% alcohol.
– The use of cream can facilitate treatment, but in
excess will make adequate pressure difficult, running the risk of making it
pressure exerted very superficially.
– The pressure applied must be in accordance with the condition of
recipient's health, age, and sensitivity. Elderly people with varicose veins,
children, sick or with low immunity and strong stress can become
feel very uncomfortable with a deeper pressure and can
until they get hurt. It can also happen that touch can provoke
tickles. It is necessary to know how to dose according to the peculiarities
individuals.
– Very abused feet, skin with many calluses and with many
dead cells will provide resistance to pressure and the goal will not be
reached, as a hardened layer of dead skin formed, which
it prevents the living skin from being touched, the session becomes unfeasible.
– Before starting zone reflex therapy, do a
relaxing massage for a few minutes to prepare the feet, and
analyze the conditions: such as calluses in specific areas, coloration,
sensitivity, varicose veins, bruised or painful areas. Discoloration
Yellowing can indicate liver problems, for example.
Massage and stretch each toe, and the feet in general.
– Use the digital fingers, the phalanges of the fingers, or an object.
rounded and pleasant to the touch.
– Repeat all the movements at least 10 times, and for
specific treatments, focus where it is needed, until you realize
that energy can circulate, and that the blockages are giving way: Repeat
the movement at least 30 times. The unlocks usually do not
they happen in a single session, so follow your intuition, and observe.
– Sessions can last from 30 minutes to 1 hour, and can be
repeated daily, or even a few times a day depending on the
need. Depending on the specific case, the session may last
less than 30 minutes.
– Mental chromotherapy: we can visualize lights in colors in the
reflex regions while we massage, to enhance the
result. I usually work with white light, which reveals
the blockages, purifies and strengthens, for it contains within itself all the others
cores; the golden light that regenerates and protects, and the violet light, which
transform. But you can work with other colors as well,
We will have examples later on.
– Toning, sedation, and balancing the points: The diseases
they exhibit signs of excess energy, or lack thereof. A hypertension
characterized by excess, the main points will need to be
sedated. Depression is characterized by lack, so the points
Main ones will need to be toned. We can also just
balancing the point, neither sedating nor tonifying. In tonification the
movement is fast - in the case of fixed pressure at a point, it is pressed
and release, press and release. - or just rotate clockwise.
In sedation, the movement is counterclockwise, or fixed pressure - in the case of
fixed pressure in one spot, we lift our finger from the location just to
rest a little.
Let's get to know each reflected part, its functioning, and how
work on them in foot reflexology

Solar plexus:

The Solar Plexus is a cluster of nerve cells that form


a network of nerves that resembles lightning. Its reflection is
important to relieve tension, stress, and distribute energy through
body. The stimulation should be done in a fixed rotational movement, as if
was drawing tiny circles on both sides,
left and right. Press the area with your thumb, phalanx of the
bent fingers or some rounded and pleasant to the touch object.
Remember to trim your nails. Repeat the movement 15 times for a
side and 15 times to the other. It can and should be used for any
treatment. It is part of the nervous system.
Rins:

The kidneys are paired organs located at the waistline, with


attached adrenal glands - the suprarenals - are responsible for
filtration of blood plasma with selective reabsorption of what is still
useful, eliminating toxic substances and helping to balance pH
body, essential for the health of the organism, in addition to regulation of
volume of water in the body. The kidneys are the gateway to life, and
contains ancestral energy; this cleansing cycle of which it is
responsible, encompasses metabolism at the cellular level, hence important
drink plenty of liquid, so we do not overload the functions of the kidneys. The
the movement is of fixed rotary pressure, to both sides. The emotion
linked to this organ is fear. Fear can disrupt your vibration
energy and its functions, and these changes can be perceived,
as well as from other regions, through any abnormality such as
elevated and/or hardened reflex area, pain, calluses, altered coloration and
etc. It is part of the urinary system.
Suprarenal:

The adrenal glands, or suprarenal glands, produce hormones that


help control blood pressure, to increase circulation of
blood through the kidneys and the process of filtering and reabsorption. This
the process causes fluid retention in the body. The production
these hormones are also induced in situations of danger and
stress that weakens the immune system. The toning of this
reflexology is indicated in cases of depression, low blood pressure, and allergies.
activation is done by pressing and releasing quickly and repeatedly
the point. Sedation is recommended for cases of high blood pressure. For
sedation, we just press and keep the pressure fixed for a while
In case of doubt regarding the procedure, it is better not to.
do it. One can also balance it with fixed rotary motion to
both sides. The color orange can be used to enhance the
treatment in cases of depression. It is part of the endocrine system.
Ureters:

They have the function of carrying waste from the kidneys to the bladder. There is one in
each kidney, heading towards the bladder, allowing passage to urine.
Stimulate elimination by massaging towards the bladder. It is part of
of the endocrine system.
Balloon

It is a hollow organ located in the pelvic cavity, with the function of


storage of urine, for elimination through the urethra. In women
It is located right in front of the vaginal canal, and in men right in front.
of the reverse. This reflection is half on the right foot and the other half
on the left foot, it should be used for any related issue
to the urinary system. Massage this reflex zone with small
circles clockwise on the right foot, and counterclockwise on the left foot.
It is part of the urinary system.
Pituitary gland

It is a tiny gland, the size of a pea, attached to


hypothalamus - emotion center - is important for the system
endocrine for controlling the other glands, and being responsible for
hormones that act on the growth of bones, muscles, and synthesis of
proteins; in addition to affecting sexual life, milk production, etc. This
a small area can be considered for any treatment with the
foot reflexology. We can work with tonification, sedation, or
equilíbrio do ponto, mas nesse caso, com uma modificação da
pressure speed and release, making it intermediate between
tonification and sedation, as it is very small and difficult to perform one
rotary movement. It is part of the endocrine system.
Head / Brain:

The fingertips correspond to the reflection of the head and the


brain. Specific pressure in these areas is essential for
any session of reflexology. The brain has the central command
of all the functions of the body. The massage should be done on
circular movements, clockwise with the right foot and counterclockwise
on the left foot, or just 'drawing lines', respecting the
direction of movement: on the left foot, to the left, and on the foot
right to the right. This reflection can be made for any situation.
It is part of the central nervous system.
Sinuses of the face:

They are cavities found on the face, which have an anatomical function.
It is linked to speech. Infected, or with abnormal changes, can
interfere also with breathing, cause headaches, and fever. The
The massage should be done from top to bottom, in a vertical direction.
Important for cases of cold, flu, sinusitis, and rhinitis.
Ears:

- Responsible for sound reception and balance. Important reflection


for problems with hearing, in the ear, and dizziness – as they can be
caused by disharmonies related to the labyrinth. The movement made is in
U-shaped, in any direction.
Eyes:

Responsible for the photoreception, for later processing


cerebral and the formation of visual images. The movement made is in
U-shaped, in any direction.
Throat and Palatine Tonsils or palatine tonsils:

Tonsils are paired structures that are part of the system of

muscles found in the back, just below the neck until the
start of the shoulders. It is an area that is commonly very tense.
Shoulders:

Fixed articulation by muscles. For a good result and greater


ease of handling this point, it is recommended to work with
the bent fingers, pressing the phalanges against the reflex area
in a vertical direction, from top to bottom.
Thyroid:

- It is part of the endocrine system. Located in front of the trachea,


it has two lobes. Produces hormones that contain iodine, with function
related to bone growth, removing calcium from circulation and
fixing it to the bones. The movement must be made from left to
right on the right foot and from right to left on the left foot.
Parathyroids:

There are four small glands located in the lobes of the thyroid.
hormones produced stimulate the absorption of these substances by
intestine and regulate calcium and phosphorus in the plasma, They also produce
the parathormones that stimulate the removal of calcium from the bones.
It is part of the endocrine system.
Lungs:

They are located inside the thoracic cavity. They have a function
respiratory: obtaining oxygen, and eliminating carbon dioxide.
This reflection should be addressed in all conditions related to
lungs. The movement of the massage is done towards the reflex of the
parathyroid, obviously limited to the end of the lung reflex. The
the corresponding emotion is sadness. Negative emotions related to
organs can cause pain, among other changes, in the foot reflex
correspondent.
Heart:

It is the center of the blood circulatory system, the dwelling of the spirit.
the heart has a pumping function coordinated by contraction,
for the circulation of blood throughout the body. One third of the heart is located
in the center of the chest, and the other two-thirds to the left, that is, he does not

balance, and its stimulation is important for cases of problem
circulatory, problems in the heart itself and emotional disharmonies,
be excessive joy, sadness, anxiety, anguish, or any other
that destabilizes emotional balance.
Liver:

It is the largest solid organ in the human body, weighing about 2.5 kg. It is located
on the right side just below the diaphragm, in the part
upper abdomen. It aids the digestive process and is the laboratory
biochemist of the organism, synthesizing enzymes, proteins, urea, salts
biliary, metabolizing toxic substances, storing glycogen and
vitamins. The emotion related to the liver is anger. The movement
it must be done towards the solar plexus, respecting the limit of the reflex
Corresponding to the liver. It is part of the digestive system.
Gallbladder:

It is attached to the liver. It stores bile, which helps in


digestion and absorption of fats. The gallbladder contracts
expelling bile into the duodenum – the initial part of the small intestine.
This reflection is important for gallstones and problems in
digestion of fats. The pressure applied is a fixed toning or
sedation.
Stomach:

It is mainly located on the left side of the body, and is


involved in the digestion of food, which begins in the mouth. In
In the stomach, food is mixed with gastric juices to
solubilization and enzymatic action. The emotion related to this organ is
the nervous concern. Its reflection is important for problems
digestive issues, ulcers, heartburn, etc. And it should be worked on in the sense
vertical, from top to bottom. The orange color activates the organ and promotes good
digestion, while the color green can be used in cases of ulcer.
Pancreas:

- It is located behind the stomach. It produces pancreatic juice, rich in


sodium bicarbonate that regulates pH in the intestine. It also secretes
insulin, essential for the metabolism of sugars. Its reflection
it addresses disharmonies linked to digestion, as well as diabetes. The massage
it can be rotary - to both sides - horizontal movements,
verticals - from top to bottom - one should always observe what the
the objective of therapy is to determine the movement and the pressure exerted.
Participates in the endocrine system, due to the production of insulin, and
also of the digestive system.

Spleen:
It is part of the lymphatic system and is located on the left side of the body.
Your related emotion is concern, and the reflection should be
worked with rotary pressure. It is important for strengthening
of the immune system.
Large intestine:

- It is responsible for the elimination of undigested remains. It has three


portions: Ascending, transverse, and descending colon. It is also
responsible for water reabsorption. Its reflex is important for
problems in the intestine. The reflex should be stimulated according to the
its movement, that is, in a clockwise direction, from left to right.
In cases of constipation, we should stimulate as follows:
ascending colon - vertical direction, from bottom to top; Colon
transverso – da esquerda para a direita; Cólon descendente
(sigmoid): vertical direction, top to bottom. The movement must
it should be done at least 30 times, the final portions must be worked on
first and with more attention. In cases of diarrhea, we work on
counterclockwise and clockwise alternately, and the transverse portions
the sigmoid functions are also worked on with more attention. It is part of
digestive system.
Small intestine:

Part of the digestive system where the absorption of substances occurs


digested, here, they will be incorporated into the circulatory systems and
lymphatic, and distributed throughout the body. The reflex is important
for digestive and intestinal problems. The movement can be
transverse, or vertical from top to bottom.
Pelvic Region and Genitals:

The pelvic region encompasses the area that extends from the abdomen
inferior to the beginning of the thighs, contains genital organs, bladder, rectum,
sciatic nerve, part of the lymphatic system. Its reflex is important for
treatment of any organ, nerve, etc. that is located in that region,
including lumbar and gynecological problems. It is represented in
foot reflection figure, like the whole area around the heel
genitals. The massage should preferably be done with the fingertips.
two fingers, on the genitals with fixed pressure, and in the pelvic region the
movement is free.
Sciatic nerve:

It is the main nerve of the lower limbs, being also a nerve


long that originates from the lower back and goes down to the feet. It is common
find people with complaints of sciatic pain. The massage on
reflexology is important for leg and lower back pain, and should be performed
in the transverse sense, from one side to another.
Lymphatic System:
Upper lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, and nodes
lower lymphatics:

Upper lymph nodes are the lymph nodes of the neck and head; the
Lymph nodes, or lymph glands, are small structures
rounded, which contain lymphocytes, plasma cells and
macrophages, which are part of the body's immune system.
Inferior lymph nodes are the lymph nodes located in the pelvic region.
Lymphatic vessels: They constitute a network of vessels that work
together and parallel to the blood circulatory system, however
the material they carry is lymph. The lymph passes through the lymph nodes to
uma “filtragem” onde partículas estranhas ao organismos são
impeded from continuing in the bloodstream. This system is
responsible for the absorption of macromolecules such as lipids, and
for the drainage of tissues and organs. When it is deficient, there are occurrences
edemas. The reflex of the lymphatic system is important for the
strengthening of the immune system, infections, and deficiency in
lymphatic circulation. The massage on the reflex of the lymphatic vessels must
to be made towards the lower lymph nodes.
Nose

- It is part of the respiratory system. Its reflex is important for


nasal congestion, flu, colds, rhinitis, sinusitis, and any
respiratory disharmony. The reflex should be done in the vertical sense of
top down.
Mamas:

- In women, the main function is the secretion of milk. This reflex is


worked for problems in the breasts; the movement can be rotational,
for both sides.
Uterus, prostate:

The uterus is part of the female reproductive system, its reflection is


important in cases of bleeding, painful menstruation and any
disharmony that afflicts the region. It is very important to observe if the
massaging should be done by sedating or toning, as toning
stimulates uterine contractions and if done during menstruation can
increase blood flow, and during pregnancy stimulate expulsion

located in front of the rectum, which is part of the reproductive system, with
production and storage of liquids that are part of the composition
of semen, and the expulsion of it.
Ovary, testicle:

The ovaries and testes are paired structures that are part of the
reproductive and endocrine system with hormone production
sexual, in women and in men, respectively. The reflection should be
massaged according to the disharmony that one wishes to treat, or
just balance it like circular movements to both sides.
Column
Cervical, Thoracic and Lumbar:

The spine is the support axis of the body, and it also has the function
to protect the spinal cord, part of the central nervous system,
responsible for the nervous communication between the brain and the body. Its
reflex is important for any case, and can be done with
massages that accompany your journey.
