SUBJECT: Why reflexology is considered a holistic modality.

In the event some of you may not know what reflexology is, I will brief you in: It is an ancient old art that focuses on the reflex points on the hands and feet, it is also a form of acupressure done on the feet which I specialize in.
I would like to extend that somewhat & go into that further by explaining how the skillful art of reflexology is categorized under the alternative field of holistic health & why it is considered a holstic modality.
Since I am on the subject on holistic health here, I feel that reflexology plays a crucial & important role when it comes to our holistic health. As you may already know, holistic means looking at things or individuals from a viewpoint of wholeness or wholisms, technicallly the word should be spelled with a wh, ie: wholistic. As in holistic health; naturopathic, homeopathic physcians, doctors of oriental medicine & most chiropractors look at their patients as a whole entity & treat them likewise. They just don't treat the disease that's inside the person, rather they look for the root or main cause of the disease itself and treat it that way, thereby eliminating the debilitating symptoms. They specialize in treating the person as a whole rather than treating the symptoms. I like to think of the math equation that says: A whole is equal to the sum of its parts. In case you may be interested; the father of holistic health and the man that started it all goes by the name of Edgar Cayce.
Getting back to reflexology for a moment, if you stop and think about it, reflexology is a holistic skill, every reflex point on the foot is a mirror image of the parts of the body. That's why it is important that when one has the treatment done on their own feet, it will greatly center their mind, body and soul back to a holistic frame of life. It just basically makes sense that it is a holistic modality. It treats all the reflex points at one time, thereby treating the whole entire person, not just a single body part. We as individuals should embrace the idea of holistic health & the skillful art of reflexology together.

Welcome Warriors to my new holistic health blog.

Welcome all avid and compassionate holistic health warriors. Be it known that my main aim of this new holistic health blog is to discusss topics that are related to holistic health. Some of the topics include: Natural supplements & herbals-Why they are superior vs synthetics. Why choose holistic health. Eating unadulterated & organic food is best. Using all pure & natural products is ideal. There may be more to come, but these are the main ones of discussion for now.
So, stay tuned as this new blog is in its infancy stage and under construction.
Also, keep in mind that all of us who are passionate about holistic health need to keep our health freedoms alive if we want to take our own health in our own hands, if we choose to go the altenative health route, that should be our business, and not the govt's. Above all, don't give up and keep fighting to keep the govt's hands off our american health care system. Sign petitions, join tea parties in your areas, and contact your senators in your state and view your opinions, we are entitiled to them.
