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.
The next post will cover bunions.

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

More About Allergies and Reflexology for the Spirit
Be aware of the products used to clean the home, pets, car, and workplace. Products should be used that come under the category of “hypoallergenic”. It won’t do much good to wash sheets and blankets in hot water with a detergent containing scents and coloring that create allergic reactions.
Finally, your client partner needs to try to resolve issues with persons causing problems. Your client partner will then have more energy to deal with the other allergens in life.
Often, it’s necessary to use the services of an otolaryngologist and an allergist as well. Desensitizing treatments can be very effective for persons suffering with contact allergies. One tried and true natural method is allergy shots.
This may seem like a lot to do. But, over time, a better quality of life will emerge. The purchase of over-the-counter preparations to deal with constant allergy symptoms will decrease. Life will, hopefully, improve.
AREAS TO WORK: respiratory system, immune system, sinuses, digestive system, endocrine system, liver and solar plexus.
ESSENTIAL OILS: German or Roman chamomile, wintergreen, lavender.
That completes the section on allergies. Our next section will be on ankle breaks and sprains – both very spiritual events.
Thanks for reading this blog.

More About What is Reflexology for the Spirit
What is Reflexology for the Spirit? In this post, we will offer more information about Reflexology for the Spirit, This should give you an in depth understanding of what Reflexology for the Spirit is all about.
Reflexology for the Spirit practitioners include spiritual observations as they manifest in the feet. They’re found:
in the different colors seen on the feet,
the locations of corns,
callouses,
bunions,
broken bones, etc.
What is Reflexology for the Spirit? Although the results of a reflexology session can be felt throughout the body, it’s not massage. Instead, practitioners manipulate the tissues of the hands, feet, and/or ears only.
An important goal of Reflexology for the spirit is Homeostasis.
Homeostasis is the return to balance of the entire body.
Encourage your client partners to schedule appointments within 1-2 days of other treatments they are receiving.
For example: if your client partner has a visit to the chiropractor,
physical therapist,
acupuncturist,
massage therapist,
or a yoga class,
please try to have him/her schedule an appointment with you within 24-48 hours before or after. This is the way to get the most value for your health care dollars. With Reflexology for the Spirit, 1 + 1 = 3.
Beginning with the next posts, we will highlight some:
specific conditions,
diseases/issues,
and treatments.
We will explain how Reflexology for the Spirit practitioners address the whole person. The next posts will be your tool box, Refer to them often.

Five Things You Need to Know About Being a Reflexology for the Spirit Practitioner
Five things you need to know about reflexology that make it a very inviting career:
First, Reflexology for the Spirit, by its very nature, is a low tech career field. Practitioners use their hands, brains, and hearts instead of machines.
Second, generally speaking, a Reflexology for the Spirit practitioner scheduling 25 sessions per week is a full time practitioner.
Third, it’s relatively easy to establish a practice without yellow page ads, billboards, etc. Some practitioners don’t even have business cards. Word of mouth is the best method here. If you like to write, you may offer a short newsletter periodically. But, more on marketing in future posts.
Fourth, Reflexology for the Spirit works well with many other modalities. A practice may be established which includes essential oils, flower remedies, yoga, massage, etc. I have several graduates who have added Reflexology for the Spirit to their yoga practices.
One modality which combines well with Reflexology for the Spirit is Reiki therapy. Reiki therapy is easy to learn, very easy to use with Reflexology for the Spirit, and the client partners love it. It’s a light touch offered to a clothed recipient. You can use Reiki therapy anytime you offer Reflexology for the Spirit.
There are no known contraindications or side effects with Reiki therapy so it can be used on virtually everyone. When combined with Reflexology for the Spirit, Reiki therapy offers a “boost” to the client’s self healing mechanism as the body moves toward homeostasis.
Fifth, If your client partners can be encouraged to eat healthfully and avoid chemicals and toxic elements – mercury, lead, hormones, or antibiotics often found in foods-reflexology sessions can be a lot more effective. If a food has a label you can’t read, pronounce, or understand, it’s not acceptable.
It’s easier for our bodies to get and stay healthy if the foods we eat are clean.
In the next posts, you’ll learn a bit about the glorious history of reflexology along with a description of the benefits, and contraindications.

Important Info You May Not Find Elsewhere
Reflexology is one of the world’s most enduring and non-invasive therapies. Reflexology sessions offer a method of reflexing energy points in the feet (or hands). These sessions bring healing results to many parts of the body at the same time. And, these sessions usually take no more than an hour.
The principle behind reflexology is that the entire body is mapped out on the feet. Important information for us: points on the feet relate to every area with a corresponding part in the body. Reflexing these points opens up pathways for healing to begin.
The spiritual aspect relates to the deeper component where the client’s emotions are found. They are the basis of medical issues or illness. They are also a manifestation of them. They can be liberated by this work. One can certainly be a reflexologist who does the mechanical work without focusing on the spiritual aspect, There are many of them.
Important information is that something changes in the hands-on experience of the session when the practitioner’s intention is to wake up the spiritual center. When that happens, the practitioner and the client-partner work together as a team. As the intention is released the client-partner finds inner spirit. In that release comes peace and homeostasis, a word you’ll find again and again in this blog.
In the next post, I’ll continue sharing important information with you.
