So, are you into Reflexology??
Yikes, after what I went through during the last visit, I don’t think so. No more Reflexology for me! :D
Schmucks, I really didn’t know what I was getting myself into when I decided to sit in for a 40 mins session of Reflexology, two weeks ago. It was pretty much a nightmare for me. I can handle body massage or body spa for hours but when it comes to foot Reflexology…Ouch, I can’t take the pain. Reasons being whenever the person starts to touch my toes, I get ticklish or “geli geliman” and secondly, it hurts like hell I tell you.
As we all know, Reflexology is a health therapy through which pressure is applied to reflex areas formed by 7,200 nerve endings in each foot. By putting the pressure on those nerve points, the body will eventually go through a natural healing process. Attending one session will not be sufficient enough to see or feel the impact. You need to go through several treatments to see or feel better results. It also improves the blood circulation of the body. A friend of mine told me, “good la it hurts at least you know Reflexology works on you!” …yeah right! hehe :P
Through last two week’s experience, I realized that the point that makes me go all sakit is the point which connects to my stomach. He told me while pressing the point, this leads to your stomach ya!..at that point, I was practically at the verge of jumping out of the seat. Adoi..sakit!
And as the session ended, the guy told me, “Miss, when I press the connecting nerve points, I can tell your problem is your stomach, manyak angin, ini mesti pergi Reflexology manyak kali la”…Oh damn…what now?? More sessions of sheer torture?? NO way!

I dunno lah Nour...I belajar anatomy no connection of the nerve in the foot connecting to the nerve in the stomach...Hehhehe..
Kalau iye lah kan...there must be something they can do on the foot for people who want to diet or decrease/increase appetite...
But you never know...people don't believe in accupuncture before but now it's recognised all over the world as alternative treatment for certain physical conditions...like back pain/sciatica
I've never tried reflexology b4 cos ramai yang cakap sakit.. now that i've read your entry.. I think I'll pass. Haha...
i had my first reflexology session last month. it hurts since my pain tolerance level is very very low! but somehow, i can feel some difference in me :)
Hi k.d,
Oh wow, if reflexology can do wonders to the weight..that would be great! Wishful thinking eh.
My first experience was pretty bad coz I could feel my feet aching and throbbing massively when the guy was putting extra pressure on my heels.
But then again, although it was painful, the after effect is that I felt my body ringan..Dunno, that cld just be my mind playing a trick on me.
I do walk a lot especially when it is a working day so that explains why my feet hurts really bad when they guy was putting pressure on the toes and heel.
Razberries!,
Oh my, it hurts I tell you! But some pple I know love that feeling..Muahaha.
Hi Mamarock,
yeah after the session, I felt my badan ringan sikitla...but they say kena buat selalu then can see the big difference..
My pain threshold pun very low, tu yg rasa macam nak lari je..when he tekan my toes....
nour, i can take reflexology..i'm the kind lagi sakit lagie suker..sampai tak tahan nak nangis baru suruh berenti.
