Reflexology is a medical care method based on the theory of reflexology. It is a natural therapy that uses techniques or other methods to stimulate the reflection areas (points) in each holographic element on the human body surface to cause physiological adjustments within the human body. It has the functions of diagnosis, treatment and health care.
Reflexology is a discipline that studies reflex theory and its applications, mainly studying the relationship between stimuli and responses. There are many parts of the human body that are relatively independent and contain whole-body information and continuous information communication with the whole body, namely holographic elements. In each holographic element, the reflection area (point) corresponding to the organs of the whole body can be found, and the physiological and pathological information of the organs can be reflected in the corresponding reflection area (point), which can be seen as a touch Signs, which have important diagnostic value; and the stimulus applied to the reflex area (point) can also be transmitted to the corresponding viscera, adjust its function, overcome the interference of various pathological factors, and maintain or restore the internal balance of the body Homeostasis.
The main characteristics of reflexology: (1) It is a holistic therapy. The focus is to mobilize the human body's internal potential to overcome pathological factors. The starting point and destination are to enhance the body's disease resistance. Therefore, it is the organic unity of health care and disease treatment. It is a method of health care and prevention of disease when it is not ill, and a means of strengthening the body and eliminating evil when it is already ill. In the treatment of disease, it can cure a major disease at the same time. , And also cure other diseases, and treat multiple diseases at the same time. (2) It is a physical therapy. Through physical stimulation, the body's self-regulation mechanism is activated, and the body's inherent self-defense and self-repair capabilities are enhanced to play a role in curing diseases. (3) It is a therapy that strengthens the foundation and cultivates vitality, and has no contradiction with other therapies. Not only does it not exclude other therapies, but it can also be used in combination with other therapies. Combined use can reduce the side effects of other therapies and promote the effects of other therapies.
The main role of reflexology is to regulate the internal functions of the human body, so it is more effective for various functional diseases. For example: diseases of the nervous system (neuralgia, nerve palsy, paralysis, headache, insomnia, neurosis, etc.); diseases of the endocrine system and immune system (hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, developmental disorders or obesity caused by pituitary dysfunction, etc.) Calcium deficiency, cramps, and various allergies caused by hypoparathyroidism); digestive and metabolic disorders (anorexia, hiccups, acid reflux, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal distension, constipation, gastrointestinal disorders, diabetes, etc.) Circulatory system disorders (heart failure, arrhythmia, high blood pressure, hypotension, anemia, etc.); respiratory system disorders (cold, bronchial asthma, etc.); urinary system disorders (urinary frequency, urinary incontinence, enuresis, urinary obstruction, renal dysfunction Etc.); reproductive system and gynecological disorders (irregular menstruation, impotence, menopausal syndrome, etc.); sensory organ disorders (myopia, tinnitus, hard of hearing, motion sickness, seasickness, etc.); skin diseases (acne, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis Wait).
Reflexology has a long history in our country. The "Yu Hou" mentioned in "Records of the History" by Sima Qian may be the earliest recorded doctor who touched his feet to treat diseases. Hand and foot massage techniques that have been handed down since ancient times have been sorted out and studied by modern science and developed into an independent subject, namely reflexology, and formed into a massage therapy that can be used for clinical treatment, rehabilitation, and preventive health care, namely reflexology.
Foot reflexology is the main branch of reflexology. Foot reflexology is also called "foot reflex zone health method". In a document approved by the former Ministry of Health in 1991 to establish the China Foot Reflex Area Health Law Research Association, “the foot reflex area health method is a simple, easy-to-use, effective, and self-care method for disease prevention and treatment without side effects.” .
Popularity, effectiveness, and safety are the outstanding advantages of reflexology.
