Effect of Foot Reflexology on Patients With Multiple
Sclerosis: A Systematic Review of Current Evidence
“Conclusion : Foot reflexology may be a safe and cost-effective intervention for individuals with MS as it has shown potential effectiveness in managing a range of physical and psychological symptoms experienced by individuals with
MS. This systematic review aimed to provide a comprehensive summary of the effects of foot reflexology on the population. Drawing from the existing scientific literature, foot reflexology can effectively alleviate symptoms such as fatigue, stress, muscle spasms, depression, and anxi-ety. As a result, it contributes to improved sleep quality and overall quality of life. Thus, improvement was seen in both subjective and objective parameters; however, large-scale randomized studies with long-term follow-up are necessary to validate these effects.”
