How to Find a Reflexologist Reflexology Chart
Reflexology is a wonderful adjunct modality to add to any healing protocol. It is very easy to do. All you need is a reflexology chart and a pair of strong thumbs. Alternatively, you can use a dull instrument, such as a pestle or even a door stopper with a rubber cap on the end to press into your feet or hands. This stimulates nerves in the feet or hands that connect to corresponding organs of the body.
Reflexology charts are easy to find and print right off the Internet. Two sources are provided below.

Tips & Warnings
Perform foot or hand reflexology once or twice a day for about 15 minutes each session.
For a less specific form of reflexology, walk barefoot on smooth river rocks or pebbles for 15 minutes each day.
There are several instructional books about reflexology on the market if you are interested in serious study. However, they are not necessary before practicing reflexology.
