RDP Reflexology

The findings of this study suggested that reflexology produced significant improvements in sleep disturbances.

Foot reflexology is a non-invasive and convenient intervention and regularly receiving foot reflexology can be considered complementary therapy to improve the sleep quality of adults with sleep disturbances. Furthermore, healthcare providers can actively press the solar plexus and heart zones to alleviate sleep disturbances when performing foot reflexology.

Ever since 2010 until now in 2023 Sarah Jessica Parker is again revealing one repeat wellness appointment (Reflexology) that she's been committed to attending for over twenty years.

'There's this little place in the West Village [in New York] that does reflexology and I've been going there since before my son was born. Its’s down some steps underneath a house and it's only got two chairs in it, but that hour long appointment is a big deal to me, it feels luxurious and can sustain me for weeks,’ she smiles. ‘I count on it.'

Back in 2010 Sarah Jessica Parker was sharing beauty tips and must haves.
In that article she recommended "Angel Feet" a Reflexology service in the heart of the West Village on beautiful, tree-lined Perry Street. Her exact words were...

Her beauty indulgences:
"Every now and then, there is this place called Angel Feet [I go to] that's amazing. It's a reflexology place. I don't know about any of that — that doesn't really matter me. The fact is that someone will rub your feet for an hour. I don't care what they find out about my insides, or different organs. That goes in one ear and out the other. The fact of the matter is that they will rub your feet for an hour. You just have to find the hour. It's not inexpensive, and it's not highway robbery. It's right in the middle there. It's worth every penny, I will say!"

I was fortunate to visit and meet Reflexologists Jessie and Denise in New York back in 2017, if you are interested read that blog post here https://spiros-reflexologia.blogspot.com/2017/11/reflexology-in-new-york-sarah-jessica.html

Day 3 of World Reflexology Week

Once again, sharing a fantastic post by @ Karen's Reflexology

DAY 3 of WORLD REFLEXOLOGY WEEK 2023

Fondly known as the ‘Mother of Reflexology’, Eunice Ingham was born in South Dakota in 1889. She went on to work as a physiotherapist, and it was through this work that she was introduced to Zone Therapy (see my post yesterday 😉)

Through her own research and evidence using the ten zones of the body she mapped the whole body’s organs and systems on the feet, developing the foot chart of modern reflexology.👣

Her technique is what is practised all over the world today.🌎

The lovely image of Eunice working on her husband’s feet is taken from her book “Stories the Feet Can Tell”.

Eunice's life-long goal was to help people as much as she was able, whenever, and wherever.

This is still the collective wish of Reflexologists all over the world.💙

Today is Day 1 of World Reflexology Week.
I just had to share this post from Hagar Basis. The more you know! ❤️

Muhammad Ali receiving REFLEXOLOGY from his reflexologist, Richard Minarik.

Careful care may keep Ali floating "like a butterfly" when he meets Ken Norton in a championship fight to Yankee Stadium Tuesday night. (AP Wire Photo) 1976

“As reported by a San Antonio, Texas newspaper, Muhammed Ali was drawn to reflexology after reading about its use by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Both were provided services by New York reflexologist Richard Minarik who applied his work with a stick.

“Leg-puller cures Muhammed Ali of his arthritis”
“A person could get hurt trying to pull Muhammed Ali’s leg. But for Richard Minarik it has paid off handsomely. Minarik is a foot reflexologist who says bodily ills can be cured by manipulating the feet.

“Last year (1976) THE STAR published a story about him curing Jackie Kennedy Onassis of a pain in her neck. Ali read the story and promptly contacted Minarik saying that he had painful arthritis in his neck which failed to respond to conventional treatment. After only two sessions of Minarik’s foot manipulation the heavy-weight champion reported a 100 percent improvement.

“He kept reciting poetry to me while I was working on him,” said Minarik. “They were all his own poems — one was called ‘The Feet’.” And now Minarik is treating Ali for arthritis in his right hand. Ali has even flown him from New York to Miami for several of the sessions.

“I have also taught him how to relax before fights,” said Minarik, who runs the Elmshurt Yoga Institute in Queens, New York. “Ali told me that next to him, I’m the greatest.”

“Minarik admits his treatment is not recognized by the medical profession. But that does not prevent him from practicing it. He took up the treatment at age 17 when a foot reflexologist cured him of crippling arthritis. “I’ve been a convert ever since,” he added.” (May 29, 1977 San Antonio (TX)
