Speaker: The soles of your feet represent a virtual map of your entire body. As a matter of fact there are over 7000 nerve endings in the bottom of your feet that corresponds to every organ and system in your body. These nerve endings are called reflexes and Reflexology is the technique of stimulating these nerve endings to elicit and natural healing response from your nervous system.
Each foot represents half of the body, the left and right foot corresponding to left and right side of the body. To help you Thyroid function better, stimulate this area on the ball of the foot, this can ease PMS and improve your sex drive. For congestion from colds, flu or allergies, work the reflex area to the lungs located in the center area below the toes. For stomachaches and pains, work the area in the arch closer to the inside of the foot. For hangovers and other liver problems, work the reflex area to the liver which is located closer to the outer edge of the right foot.
To detox your body and help water tension work the bladder all the way up to the kidneys. Stimulate the colon by thumb walking up the ascending colon across the transverse colon, down the descending colon and across the Sigmoid colon. Also work the intestines and the colon on both feet. Stimulate the colon by thumb walking up the ascending colon across the transverse colon, down the descending colon and across the Sigmoid colon.

Working on this area can also help alleviate the pain of Crohn's disease, an irritable bowel syndrome. Work the Sciatic nerve back and forth a few times.
