Finding the True Harmony within you

Foot Facts and Toe Tiblets- Reflexology for Men's Health

Reflexology for Men's Health

In today’s stressful work environment men can benefit from the relaxation effects of a Reflexology session.  Reflexologists actually work therapeutically, much like an Acupuncturist would. By stimulating points within the reflex maps the Reflexologist is encouraging the body to find a balance for itself. The whole map is stimulated and therefore the entire body gets attention, while only the feet are being worked on.

Male Reproductive and Urologic Health

The male reproductive organs can suffer from a variety of conditions including but not limited to:

·   Infertility – male factor infertility can account for up to 40% of all conception problems and can range from genetic to physiological to hormonal and sperm abnormalities.

·   Urologic diseases and disorders – prostate cancer, hematospermia (blood in the semen), incontinence, and enlarged prostate.

·   Sexual disorders – dysfunctions including premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction

Reflexology is the practice of massaging, squeezing, or applying pressure on parts of the feet, with the goal of encouraging a beneficial effect on other parts of the body, to relieve stress, cleanse the body of toxins, increase circulation and improve general health. Reflexology was introduced into the United States in 1913 by William H. Fitzgerald, M.D.

Toe Reading is based on the theory that your body records the story of your life. The position and shape of the toes say a lot about their owner. By observing someone's toes you will know a great deal about their past and the experiences they have lived through. For example, the right foot will share your story on how you show up in the world, or relate to an outside relationship, whereas the left foot relates to your relationship with yourself and Spirit. Rarely are the right and left side stories the same.

Traci Fors is a licensed massage therapist, specializing in Reflexology, Toe Reading, Cranial Unwinding, and Swedish massage at the Center for True Harmony Wellness and Medicine. You can reach her at 480-539-6646 or info@trueharmonywellness.com.

How Reflexology Can Support the Menopause Experience 

Regular reflexology treatments can support a menopausal woman physically, mentally and emotionally.  It can help a woman tune into her body’s needs, highlighting imbalances and areas which need attention.  It can provide a safe space in which to relax, receive and be self-focused.  Having an empathic reflexologist who understands the physical changes behind menopausal symptoms and takes her problems seriously can, in itself, relieve stress.

Reflexology for Headaches

The upper part of the underside of the big toe and the lower part of the toenail of the big toe correspond to the head and brain. The lower portion of the upper side of the big toe corresponds to the neck. When reflexology locates a tender spot on the part of the big toe corresponding to the neck, applying pressure to this spot will relieve the tenderness in the toe and tension in the neck that could be causing headaches. Schedule you appointment with Traci Fors and allow her to teach you this technique.

Traci Fors is a licensed massage therapist and reflexologist at The Center for True Harmony.  Call 480-539-6646 today to schedule a Reflexology session with her.  Your feet (and body) will thank you!

Reflexology and your Solar Plexus

Within the physical body, the solar plexus is found right in the middle of the upper half of the trunk of the torso, where the rib cage comes together at the stomach level in front of the diaphragm. On the feet, it can be found if you draw an imaginary line from the second toe down, below the ball of the foot, right within that hollow. It can also be found if you gently squeeze the top of the foot inward. You should find a “little dimple space”- that’s the solar plexus point.

This reflex point is great for relieving insomnia, stress and anxiety. However if you are feeling a little “low in energy” this point will also help to increase energy levels. Reflexology will always work to balance the body from any extreme.

Now that you know where your solar plexus reflex point is located, I will share with you how to stimulate it.

While seated, bring the foot of your choice up and over the opposite knee and allow it to comfortably rest there.

·

With the opposite side hand, use your thumb to press in and slightly upward on the point (hold for 20 seconds). As you slowly release pressure, don’t loose contact with the point; just relax the pressure. Repeat this 3 times and then move to the opposite foot.

·

You can also try inhaling as you press in and exhaling as you release out.

Reflexology and Menstrual Cramps

Reflexology can assist with your menstrual cramps by helping the muscles to relax just like a regular massage.  Schedule a reflexology session and we can apply a Castor Oil Pack for you. When applied with heat this can aid tremendously in reducing inflammation and cleansing, helping to ease the pain.
