The pituitary gland enhances a reflexology session many ways as it controls the endocrine system.

Endocrine System

When you work the pituitary gland reflex, several things happen:

The pituitary gland secretes hormones controlling, coordinating, and regulating  the function of endocrine glands throughout the body.

The glands of the endocrine system include:

thyroid gland

parathyroid glands

pancreas

adrenal glands
