17.01.2022 Compared to the rest of the world, Australia is doing very well at keeping Covid-19 at bay. Let us help our own immune system by using these self help tips to do so and don't forget to share with your clients and friends. Thank you Sue E for another great tip.
16.01.2022 Many Reflexologists have used their skills on their cats and dogs to help keep them healthy and happy or to aid a medical issue. Here we have a less common reci...pient, Ted the koala. Ted was found orphaned with a broken arm after the Adelaide bushfires in February this year. Our Professional Member, Lynne, volunteers at the Adelaide Koala and Wildlife Hospital and is seen here treating Ted while he's sedated. The reflex points on an animal's paws and feet are often very close together and can even overlap, so an animal treatment session is usually much shorter than a human's - but just as effective!
14.01.2022 What is Reflexology? How is it different to Massage? How safe is it? Reflexology is used worldwide as a complementary therapy. Reflexology theory is that a ref...lexologist can apply specific, adjusted pressure and stimuli techniques to the individual’s reflex points in the hands, feet, head and ears. Applying pressure to these reflex areas may affect the organs and body systems and the touch sends energy flowing through the body bringing balance and deep relaxation which allows the body to heal. Safe, simple - and yet so powerful!
13.01.2022 Feet have everything they need to carry you through life... quite literally! Do you know what a complex and wonderful piece of engineering the human foot is? Seriously. Each foot has 28 bones, 30 joints and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments!... Our feet specialised over millions of years of evolution to fulfil certain basic tasks. Walk, run, jump, climb trees, escape from predators, hunt prey, keep you upright, and provide feedback about the earth beneath you. Many foot problems we see today largely stem from poor footwear choices and weakness or disuse of the feet. These include plantar fasciitis, bunions, ingrown toenails, and even ankle sprains. Try these exercises as a starting point for better foot health. Take it slow though. If you do have foot problems, or you aren't used to spending much time barefoot, then these may be a bit of a shock to your system. Those little muscles and joints in your feet might not have been very active for a long time, so give them a chance!
12.01.2022 Do this everyday for 30 seconds! Healthy feet not only make us feel better but also help with improved circulation and an improved feeling of relaxation when we... force our bodies to work hard, physically. Footwork is one of those workouts you could do when watching TV, but your feet (and the rest of your body) will thank you for it.

12.01.2022 Lymphatic Skin Brushing ~ Why we all should be doing it! If poor circulation, dry skin, cellulite, fluid retention, low immunity or recurring swollen glands ar...e an issue lymphatic skin brushing is for you! Our lymphatic system is like our drainage system. It runs alongside the circulatory system carrying lymph fluid. It drains interstitial fluid and returns it to the blood, transports our dietary lipids and fat soluble vitamins A,D, E and K and is key to immune response and function. Lymph nodes are where foreign materials like microbes in the body are brought for filtration by your B and T lymphocytes. A swollen lymph gland (i.e. swollen tonsils) is a reaction to infection... so should be seen as a good thing! In herbal medicine we use lymphatic herbs to aid lymph drainage to support the immune response to infection rather than suppress the swollen gland. Some people suffer from recurring swelling of the lymph glands in different areas of the body indicating dysfunctional immune response. Lymphatic brushing is a quick and simple way of addressing any of the above issues and keeping yourself healthy. It can be done everyday taking just 2 minutes. Take your brush and following the directions in the image you vigorously brush your skin in circular movements using light pressure. Only ever use the brush DRY on dry skin. Before showering is a good time. Here are some of the health benefits... Improves circulation around the body for better organ function. Improves circulation to the skin aiding skin detoxification. Encourages lymph drainage to reduce edema in areas of the body. Stimulates your immune system. Supports detoxification of the liver and kidneys. Exfoliates the skin leaving it soft, subtle, improving complexion and tone and reducing cellulite - you'll notice improvement in a week! Beneficial during pregnancy for the mother and to increase blood flow to the fetus. For the ultimate daily skin care brush before showering and oil the skin when wet after showering following the same lymphatic movements to massage in the oil. Boosted immunity, improved circulation and heavenly skin all for a few minutes a day! See more
05.01.2022 SELF HELP TIP: A little help for those ladies that experience hot flushes <3
02.01.2022 The Effect of Reflexology on Chemotherapy-induced Nausea, Vomiting, and Fatigue in Breast Cancer Patients Abstract Objective: Patients receiving chemotherapy st...ruggle with the side effects of this treatment. These side effects obligate the patients to use not only the pharmacological methods but also non-pharmacological relaxing methods. This study was conducted to determine the effect of reflexology on chemotherapy-induced nausea, vomiting, and fatigue in breast cancer patients. Methods: The study was conducted as a pretestposttest experimental design. The study was conducted with sixty patients, thirty as the control and thirty as the experimental groups. A sociodemographic form, Rhodes index of nausea, vomiting, and retching (INVR), and Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI) were used to collect the data. Analysis of variance, t-test, percentage calculations, and Chi-square methods were used to evaluate the data. The data obtained were assessed using the Statistical Package for Social Science 21.0 software. Results: It was determined that the difference between the total mean scores of INVR in the experimental and control groups was significant on the onset and first and second measurements, and the difference between total mean scores of development and distress between the groups was statistically significant in the third measurement (P < 0.05). The results of the study showed that the BFI mean scores of patients in the experimental group gradually decreased in the first, second, and third measurements (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The present study proved that reflexology decreased the experience, development, distress of nausea, vomiting, and retching as well as fatigue in the experimental group. Hence, the use of reflexology is recommended for chemotherapy-induced nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Full article here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5473096/
