Thickened Nails and Skin – Spiritual Protection Issues Need to be Worked Through
This is protection, pure and simple. So, what is being protected?
Secrets? Thoughts? Actions? Beliefs?
It’s not important to know.
So, what are you seeing? Whatever you observe, no matter how unsightly, or benign it appears, you need to persuade your client partner to visit a podiatrist to treat the physical issues. As feet age, podiatrists become more important. There comes a point at which the nails need to be professionally trimmed regularly and the issues presenting themselves in the nails must be addressed.
Spiritual protection issues need to be worked through…especially in the older person because issues affecting the nails don’t heal overnight. It takes regular visits in addition to what the physician or podiatrist has prescribed to work through them.
Encourage your client partner to cleanse the colon and then the liver. As always, begin with a colon cleanse first before proceeding to the liver. These cleanses are important because your client may not see any improvement for months and a colon and then liver cleanse can speed up this process somewhat. Cleaning out the body is the first step in a journey to healthy skin and nails.
Where the thickness occurs on the foot offers clues to the issues beyond the physical disease. Look at the foot. Where is the thickened skin? What body part or system is represented? For example, if a person’s thyroid is out of balance, there will be a thickened place or a callus in that reflex area.
Finally, as a person’s life (lifestyle, beliefs, health) begins to change, you may see feet with peeling skin. Hurray! (Providing this is the change s/he wants.)
When working the feet of a person with thickened nails and skin, reflex the points that represent the problem area. For example, if the thickened skin is in the area of the thyroid, work that area as well as the endocrine system.
SYSTEMS TO WORK: Work the systems related to whatever diagnosis the primary medical care person has given to your client partner. Work the immune system, nervous system, urinary system, endocrine system, digestive system, liver and solar plexus.
ESSENTIAL OILS: myrrh, lemon, frankincense, tea tree, lemongrass, oregano, wintergreen, peppermint, tangerine, lavender.
Many conditions exist for which Reflexology for the Spirit is appropriate. However, there is much more information to share with you. When a client partner comes to you with an issue which you feel may have spiritual layers, contact me and I’ll write about it in a post for you.
Thank you for reading this blog. It is an honor and a pleasure to serve you in this way. As always, this post comes to you from my healing space in scenic, downtown Woodstock, NY.
Peace and food for all.
