Arthritis and Reflexology for the Spirit, Continued
When an arthritis sufferer uses all the health care professionals available to him/her, the results are better. Fewer drugs will be consumed. That’s an important result.
A Reflexology for the Spirit practitioner deals with the problems presented by arthritis over the long haul. When working with an arthritis sufferer, you need to learn about all the things s/he can do in the self help arena. Try to learn all the things that the rheumatologist recommends. When you know these things, you can work with them. Know about recommended exercise therapy. How does acupuncture fit into the overall picture? What does the nutritionist recommend?
Optimum improvement depends on repeated, regular visits to the Reflexology for the Spirit practitioner’s table. The other specialists will “come and go” as needed in the client partner’s life. You, on the other hand, owill be seeing this person weekly.
Arthritis sufferers often postpone getting needed treatment necessary for relief. This is not a good approach. The sooner your client partner begins to aggressively combat arthritis, the better off s/he will be – even years down the line.
When working with an arthritis sufferer, regardless of the type, keep in mind that you are dealing with a person who cannot help being overly critical both of self and others. Many arthritis sufferers appear to harbor resentment and blame in many areas of life. This is a huge statement considering the number of people suffering with arthritis.
AREAS TO WORK: solar plexus, entire endocrine system, urinary system, immune system, nervous system, digestive system, circulatory system, liver, solar plexus and individual joints the client partner is suffering with.
ESSENTIAL OILS: wintergreen, peppermint, nutmeg, German chamomile, clove, copaiba, helichrysum, Idaho balsam fir, white fir, pine, eucalyptus globulus, frankincense, and myrrh are popular with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis sufferers.
Violet Flame Reiki therapy is appropriate for arthritis sufferers.

Anxiety and Reflexology for the Spirit
Anxiety sufferers are often adults who feel they experienced emotional neglect and trauma as children. Anxiety can also “run in families”. Sometimes, people on certain long term prescriptive drugs exhibit anxiety symptoms. Anxiety is present when a chemical imbalance exists in the brain. It’s diagnosed by symptoms. And, some experts feel that anxiety affects more women than men.
Offer your anxiety sufferers an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of essential oils and Reiki therapy in addition to Reflexology for the Spirit sessions.
AREAS TO WORK: solar plexus, nervous system, digestive system, urinary system, endocrine system, adrenals, liver and solar plexus.
Always offer a few moments with a solar plexus hold if you feel a person is suffering with anxiety. Reflexing the solar plexus offers the body an opportunity to achieve deep relaxation and grounding. If your client partner is taking prescriptive drugs, herbs, or other medications for a medical condition, please work the body systems that apply.
ESSENTIAL OILS: orange, Roman chamomile, ylang, ylang, lavender

Some Key Facts You May Not Find Elsewhere
Reflexology for the spirit does so much for a person without asking for a lot in return.
Thjere’s no need to remove clothing except for shoes and socks. If necessary, Reflexology for the Spirit can be offered to a person in a very crowded room. Very little special furniture is needed. A person can hang his/her feet off the end of a sofa or prop them up on a stool. And, for many, the results can be very dramatic.
Twenty years ago if you mentioned reflexology to most physicians they would give you a funny look. Things have changed. Interest in, and appreciation for, this revered and ancient healing modality has exploded in the last two decades. It’s now being offered in tandem with sports medicine, physical therapy, cosmetic surgery, and cancer treatment. And, in the ever-widening sphere of complimentary and integrative medicine, reflexology has found a welcome home.
In the next post, I’m going to continue offering info that you may not find elsewhere.
Peace and food for all.
