Persons suffering with back problems often feel overwhelmed and under supported.  They carry baggage from the past &#8211; not only from events in this lifetime but from events in other lifetimes.<br \/>\nMany, many people have back issues.  There is a huge industry surrounding these painful issues.  People suffering with bad backs need special beds, chairs, pillows, medication, exercise equipment.  We&#8217;re talking millions of dollars here.<br \/>\nBacks are divided into three parts:  Upper, Mid, and Lower.<br \/>\nWith the upper back, the shoulders carry the weight of the world. Upper back problems occur when there is a lack of trust, constant worry, fear, negativity, perfectionism, limitation.<br \/>\nPhysically, upper back problems can result from injury, poor posture, muscle strain, pinched nerves.<br \/>\nMiddle back issues focus on instability, guilt, sensitivity, criticism, judgment, and inability to forgive others as well as the self.<br \/>\nPhysically, middle back issues result from injuries, standing or sitting for long periods, improper lifting.<br \/>\nLower back issues result from constant worrying about core issues, survival. There is a preoccupation with  negativity, long term anger, focusing on why things can&#8217;t be done.<br \/>\nLower back issues result often from improper lifting, tension.  Women have lower back problems caused by pregnancy and menstrual problems.<br \/>\nAs a reflexology for the spirit practitioner, you can see back issues when your client partner walks into your healing space:  What is the gait like? Are the toes pointed outward?  Are they pointed inward?  What is the situation with the arches? When I meet a person whose feet are pointed outward or inward, I know that I&#8217;ll eventually find back issues.<br \/>\nWith flat arches, the client-partner is not receiving sufficient support in life.  There will eventually be a back issue.<br \/>\nWhen offering reflexology to a person suffering from back issues, begin the session by working the solar plexus and diaphragm reflexes, work the spine reflexes.  Work the arm and shoulder reflexes to address upper back and neck issues.  Work the kidney reflexes, the hip, thigh, and leg reflexes, and the sciatic nerve reflexes to addresses lower back issues.<br \/>\nThank you for reading this blog\/book.<br \/>\nPlease share this article with your preferred social media.<br \/>\nPeace and food for all.<br \/>\nThurman Greco   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back issues have very spiritual components.
