Holding your wrists straight is the difference between having a 2-year career as a practitioner and having a 20-year career.<\/p>\n
If you find that you must do wrist gymnastics to offer a session, read the instructions again.\u00a0 Adjust the height of your stool or chair, hold the person’s foot in a different way, etc.\u00a0 Do whatever is necessary to protect the health of your hands.<\/p>\n
Are you comfortable as you work?\u00a0 If not, you won’t provide a good session.<\/p>\n
It’s not necessary to inflict pain in order to be a good Reflexology for the Spirit practitioner.\u00a0 As a matter of fact, many successful practitioners offer a light touch to their clients.\u00a0 You don’t want your touch to be so light that you’re tickling your client partners.\u00a0 But, it’s\u00a0 not necessary to be super heavy either.<\/p>\n
So, what do you do if a client insists that your touch is too light and that you should “go deeper” because s\/he doesn’t feel anything or because s\/he received a session 30 years ago and the reflexologist offered very deep, painful work?<\/p>\n
Don’t compromise your standards, your practice, or your thumbs.\u00a0 End the session.\u00a0 Let the person return to the reflexologist who offered the pain in the past.<\/p>\n
There is another important reason for this:\u00a0 sometimes people don’t feel anything because they have insufficient, or no, feeling in their feet.\u00a0 This is a health issue.\u00a0 They\u00a0need to see their primary care health professional.<\/p>\n
Don’t get sucked into their illness.\u00a0 If you do, you’ll run the risk of damaging their feet as well as your hands in your effort to offer a session to a person who can’t feel much.<\/p>\n
Thanks for reading this post.\u00a0 I hope you found the information helpful.\u00a0 Please leave a comment if you have a question or other observation.<\/p>\n
In the\u00a0next two posts, we’ll focus on the practical application for Reflexology for the Spirit.<\/p>\n
As always, this information comes to you from my Woodstock Healing Space.<\/p>\n
Peace and food for all.<\/p>\n
