Reflexology to help Morning Sickness
Reflexology is kin to the ancient technique of foot massage, based in theory that particular reflex points of the feet relate to the nerve receptors of the bodies organs, as they interconnect to energy pathways. A reflexologist believes that applying pressure to particular reflex points aids in removing blockages or disturbances within the energy field, massaging these points aids in stimulating the self-healing ability while restoring the balance of energy in reflexology. Vomiting and nausea may respond to reflexology, when combined with other corresponding therapies, such as homeopathy, acupressure, acupuncture and shiatsu. For the relief of nausea, a reflexologist may gently massage the solar plexus reflex point, located on the sole of the left foot, just below the ball of the foot.
