Massage is one of the oldest healing methods for human. The usability was very common because this method can fix directly to several human problems such as twist or sprain. There is another traditional method of massage called reflexology or zone therapy.
Reflexology is an alternative medicine involving the physical act of applying pressure to the feet, hands, or ears with specific thumb, finger, and hand techniques. This method claims that some zone in the body is the reflection of another body part.
The reflection zone is much centralized on hand or feet. By massaging hand or feet, the therapist can cure problems in another part of the body such as spine, digestion, heart, lungs, and others. Must of Practitioners of reflexology has knowledge on human nerve, and sometimes connected with acupuncture technique.
Below this I give you simple picture of reflexology zone so you can do it by yourselves or with partners:
As you see in picture, in general the zone of reflections has the same spot between the right foot and left, such as for kidney and lungs. But there’s some part that only find in one foot, such as heart only in left foot, but liver and bile only on right foot.
If you had already memorized the reflexology zone, do not hesitate to start massaging with your finger or wood stick. A little lotion or oil may also used to make the massage easier. This method is suitable for all age.
