We're going to want to focus on the reflexes
to the neck, the head, the sinuses, the pituitary gland reflex, the adrenal gland reflex, and
the ileocecal valve reflex. We're going to break those down. We'll be using all thumb walking and a little
finger walking techniques. Using thumb walking, we're going to start
with the big toe, the great toe. We can do thumb walking across the base; this
will be the neck reflex. And, actually, it's for all the toes. We're doing one toe at a time. But once you're done doing that whole toe,
you'll do the second digit and the third and, of course, both feet. Now I'm coming down here using finger walking
and I'm coming down the great toe; so I'm coming down here. And, of course, always supporting using my
thumb and I always support the ball of the foot here as well. And it will shift as you move along the foot,
depending on where you are. I'm doing the whole toe, all the way around
the head. In a reflexology map, you're going to see
that the great toe is like the head, the brain, the neck reflexes so you want to get it all
the way around. Brain, brain stem, pituitary gland reflex,
pituitary and pineal gland reflex; so do all that in full and you'll take it to the toes
as well. With the toes, the sinus reflexes are all
here. So in order to access those, we're going to
thumb walk down. So thumb walking down, we're going to pass
through them and, if I continue on, I'm accessing the reflexes to the neck. And again, I'm going to do it all the way
around. So we do the sides as well with the thumb
and the finger and then we do the front primarily using the finger walking technique, and that's
the front. And then we end at the very top, which is
the brain reflex. So we would come through here, doing the top
of the toe. After you've done all the toes and given attention
to the sinus areas, you're also going to come down here and give attention to the adrenal
gland reflex. So adrenal gland reflex is right through here. You can see that if you were to come down
between your first and second digits, right through here, kind of midway through, you
kind of feel it; it's like a little button in there. And another area that you want to give attention
to, in addition to the sinuses and head and adrenals, is the ileocecal valve. It's the valve between the small intestine,
the large intestine. It controls levels of mucus in the body so
it can have an effect on the sinuses, pressure and mucus up in this area as well. So the ileocecal valve, right here, is your
heel. Right, a little bit up, as you course down
on this fifth zone, this fifth metatarsal, a little bit in of that is your ileocecal
valve. I usually will just walk the entire large
intestine reflex and it will come up through here; you'll go across, continue on, this
is the transverse colon; come down descending colon, sigmoid colon, and then out. And that's just for good measure. You could certainly just hold here. And then you could end; I like to always end
protocols with the solar plexus reflex. Coming across through here, your thumb will
be right there, and just lean a little forward.
