Can you pass along any information regarding reflexology and bringing
someone out of a coma. My friends 17 year old son was in a car accident
ten days ago and his brain was literally shaken up. No impact just
a lot of shaking. |

Hi, I was reading a book on reflexology and read how using reflexology
hand combs across the middle of your palms reduces childbirth pain
and shortens delivery. Was wondering if you knew of anyone who has
tried this and if it really works. Thank you. |

Question :
1. Is accu-pressure and reflaxology the same thing ? if they are
different Can accu-pressure and reflaxology work together?
2. I have been doing accu-pressure ( and reflaxology), and often
practising on my family members and friends, and they are very pleased
with me. But I want to be professional, so could you guide me how
I can practice legally and set up my professional career, as I am
very interested in it.
I would appreciate if you would answer my questions
Thanks

I've been reading some material on reflexology and I have found
myself very interested in it. Actually the first time I realized
how helpful it could be was when a friend was suffering and I made
her feel better by working on her feet. I have always loved people.
I can sit and watch people for hours and feel like I almost know
them.I can't think of anything I would like more than to make people
feel better.I
have very much enjoyed what I've been reading here. I am hoping
to learn more. |

Comment:
A lovely and insightful resource on the art of Reflexology. As a
teatcher of traditional Karate-doh, I have for the last two decades
sought out traditional healing techniques that do more than just
manage symptoms. I feel that Reflexology, particularly when coupled
to aromatherapy acts on such a basic level often going beyond where
other therapies can reach.
I regularly work on my students who have come to me with evident
work related stress problems. I feel that Reflexology and traditional
martial arts are closely related and shouldn't be taught independantly.

There is no regular mailing address for you at your website. Your
comments were very valuable. I would like to hear more about the
"Oma" Method and also ways of acquiring clients. Do you feel one
needs to be certified per se? Thank you for any and all answers.

quotes, inparticular on the pineal body, as I have found it very
difficult to find references. The principal of Centre where I learn
has seen a printout I gave her . She was very interested to see
more!. I am a qualified Aromatherapist , so your comments on how
the two therapies may work together would be appreciated. Keep up
the good work , Liebe Oma. regards Kerstin ( of German extraction!) |

I have been studying reflexology now for about 3months--hope to

What suggestions would you give me as I am just beginning...have
begun doing my 100 practicum hours. One person I work with is diabetic
with blood sugar lately in the 180 range. Her doctor is watching
this, yet I am really concerned and a little scared that I might
"overdo". Can you give me any pointers? I would like to know how
you, Oma, got your training. Thanks, sally |

Certified reflexologist, homeopathic student, 21 years old and sharing
treatments for over a year, I am constantly amazed with the results
(sometimes immeadiate) that my clients experience. I am very interested
in case studies working with people with fibromyalgia, MS and arthritis.
I am interested in incorporating body reflexology points, and simple
alternative treatments in order to help my clients. I welcome any
e-mail. Especially from those reflexologists just starting out,
with many questions - and anyone who may be interested in this field,
I encourage you to e-mail me with any questions! I think it is about
time that the medical community should take reflexology seriously.
If anyone is in the area and interested in visiting please feel
free to call me! My doors are always open. |

Oma, Please send me some information on the types of Research you
have been engaged in. I am doing research into the modality of Reflexology
and its practice and results. I would be interested in the types
of research you have conducted that can substantiate many of the
miraculous claims offered by many local practitioners.
Dick:
As an active practitioner of Reflexology of more than twenty years,
I need no further proof of the results that can be achieved with
Reflexology methods.
The research I am engaged in focuses more on ways to supplement
the method of Reflexology in order to make it even more effective.
I am also investigating new possibilities of communicating the benefits
of Reflexology to a wider audience.
