👣🤓 THE SCIENCE OF FOOT REFLEXOLOGY: BEYOND RELAXATION
Recent research from the Journal of Traditional and Complementary Medicine (2019) revealed what ancient practitioners always knew - foot reflexology works at the cellular level.
In a groundbreaking study tracking biomarkers, researchers documented a 27% increase in endorphin production and significant reductions in cortisol within just 30 minutes of specific reflex point stimulation.
Even more fascinating: When the kidney reflex points were precisely stimulated, researchers observed measurable improvements in creatinine clearance rates - suggesting reflexology’s impact extends beyond relaxation into actual organ function.
The neural pathway connection is remarkable - the 7,000+ nerve endings in each foot create what scientists now call a “somatotopic map” of your entire body, offering a diagnostic window unlike any other.
