4 Ways the Bladder is Enhanced in a Reflexology Session
After the kidneys filter out the toxins, salts, and wastes in the body, they convert them into urine. The urine then travels down the ureters to the bladder which holds it until it’s voided. Bile in the liver gives urine its yellow color.
When you work the bladder reflex points, several things happen.
The bladder increases blood circulation to fight infection.
The bladder begins a mild flush.
The bladder washes toxic wastes out of the body.
The bladder passes stones.
The bladder reflex is located on both feet on the mound of the heel pad which is located on the medial side of the heel.

3 Ways the Sinuses are Enhanced in a Reflexology Session
The sinuses are hollow cavities connected to the nose by tunnels. They’re lined with tiny hairs and mucous membranes just the same as those in the nose. Sinuses are a front line of defense against infection and also contribute to the sounds of our voice.
When we work the sinus reflexes, several things happen:
Inflammation of the mucous membranes is discouraged.
Accumulated debris drains.
The sinuses are encouraged to fight infection.

5 Ways the Uterus is Enhanced in a Reflexology Session
.
The uterus receives the fertilized egg and houses and nourishes it until birth. The uterus is mostly thick muscle. It’s made up of 2 parts: a neck (cervix) and a body. As the fetus grows, the uterus grows.
When the uterus reflex points are worked, the following things happen:
The uterus is supported to remain healthy.
Infections are prevented.
Blood circulation to the uterus is supported.
The uterus is encouraged to maintain flexibility.
Monthly menstrual functions are encouraged to normalize.
The reflex points for the uterus are found on both feet in the hollows beneath the inner ankle bones.

7 Ways the Intestine Reflex Enhances a Reflexology Session
The intestine is the largest organ in the digestive system. It’s over 25 feet long. Once the food we eat leaves the stomach, it passes through the intestine as chyme. The intestine absorbs the nutrients in the chyme as it moves along toward the anus.
When the intestine reflexes are worked, several things happen:
Wastes are removed that might set off allergic reactions.
Both the large and small intestine are encouraged to contract regularly and remove wastes.
Excess gas is expelled.
Bile release is released so stones can be more easily passed out of the body.
Constipation is prevented.
The back flow of wastes is prevented.
The intestine reflexes are found on both feet. They are found on the sole, from the top of the heel across the foot. A landmark for finding the intestine is the cuboid notch.

Built to hold the weight of the body, the hips are stronger than the shoulders.
When you work the hip reflexes, several things happen:
When the hip joints are stimulated, blood circulation is increased.
Muscles and nerves surrounding the hips are toned up.
Muscles are surrounding the hips are relaxed.
Clotting is prevented.
Swelling is relieved.
The hip reflex is located on both feet. It is about 30% of the way up the foot from the heel on the outer edge of the foot.

6 Ways the Spinal Reflexes Enhance a Session
The spine is made up of 33 vertebrae. The vertebrae are stacked vertically with discs between each one. This column supports the skull while protecting the spinal cord which travels through the hollow center of the bones.
The spinal cord is an extension of the central nervous system of the brain. It’s nerve fibers relay information to and from the brain and the rest of the body. Think of the spinal cord as a switchboard. It sends messages to the body causing emergency reactions. When you pull your hand away from a hot object, you do so because of a message sent by your spinal cord, not your brain.
When you work the spinal reflex points, several things happen:
The spine is motivated to enhance its flexibility.
Nervous responses are regulated.
Muscles surrounding the spinal cord relax .
Muscles around the sacroiliac relax.
The body’s nervous responses are soothed.
The spine is located on both feet on the inner edges (medial) from the base of the big toe down to the base of the heels.

9 Ways the Kidneys Enhance a Reflexology Session
The kidneys are fascinating glands which regulate fluids in the body and purify blood. There is an interesting note here. When we perspire, our body acts as if our sweat glands are a third kidney because the chemical composition of perspiration is the same as urine.
One kidney reflex point is found on each foot. The reflex point is located in the center area of the arch. The adrenal gland reflex sits right on top of the kidney reflex point.
When you reflex the kidney points, several things happen:
The kidneys process fluid wastes.
Waste eliminating functions are stimulated.
Blood is purified.
Fluid balances are regulated.
Blood pressure is regulated.
Uric acid production is regulated.
Blood circulation is stimulated.
Kidneys flush themselves out.
Water levels in the body are regulated.

14 Ways the Adrenal Glands Enhance a Reflexology Session
The adrenal glands are 2 small endocrine glands found over the tops of the kidneys. The adrenal gland reflexes are found on both feet. They are third chakra glands, best known for creating the “fight or fight” reaction humans experience in emergencies. They also give us butterflies. So, with these two reactions, we actually feel these glands.
Adrenal glands do much more than create butterflies. When you address the adrenal glands points, several things happen:
The glands secrete hydrocortisone, to support inflammation reduction.
Air passages open as the adrenal glands secrete cortisone.
Glands regulate kidney functions and release hydrocortisone.
Glands enhance the muscle tone of the digestive organs.
Adrenal glands fight fatigue.
Tissue swelling is reduced.
Alertness is accelerated.
Sodium and potassium levels are balanced, normalizing blood pressure and heartbeat.
The muscle tone of the heart is influenced.
Kidneys begin to flush, offering a mild detox action.
Sodium and potassium levels are controlled.
Breast tissue swelling is reduced.
Premenstrual bloating and swelling is reduced.
Metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates is regulated.
Adrenal gland reflexes are found on both feet just above the kidney reflexes.

4 Ways the Solar Plexus Enhances a Reflexology Session
The solar plexus is a nerve hub located in the muscles and nerves which divide the chest cavity and the abdominal cavity. The solar plexus is in the area of the third chakra in the body. We often refer to the third chakra as the adrenal glands. The solar plexus is between the adrenals. This is where we feel “butterflies.”
Information traveling between the brain, the nerves and the organs travels through the solar plexus.
I’ve written repeatedly in this blog/book that the solar plexus should be worked in all reflexology session. This is because the solar plexus is critical to the processing of stress and relaxation.
When you reflex the solar plexus point, several things happen:
The solar plexus tells the nerves to relax. This helps lungs regulate breathing patterns. As this happens, the body relaxes and is able to overcome panic reactions and anxiety. Breathing functions are balanced and enhanced, offering support to the respiratory system.
When you reflex the solar plexus point, you encourage the abdominal muscles to relax. The body is then able to destress.
Rotations to the solar plexus point activate the abdominal organs so they can work better.
Solar plexus point rotations soothe and relax the entire body. This offers grounding and calm.
