Reflexology does have scientific research to support it.  In her latest podcast, Lauren explains about many research projects and their conclusive results.  She will also share about the scientists working on mapping the brain, and proving the connection between reflexology points on the foot and specific areas in the brain.

So if you have ever heard anyone say that Reflexology in unproven, and that there is no research to back up the effectiveness of Reflexology?   Listen to this podcast and find out the truth!

Did you know that in an evaluation of therapeutic effects and clinical indications of foot reflexology,  Liang Wang, Chinese Medical Doctor,  conducted a  Meta Analysis of 8096 Reflexology Research studies –  The result was that 7584 or 93.63% reported positive changes.

Have you heard that diabetics should not receive Reflexology?  Is it true?  To find out the answer listen to the latest episode of the Lauren Slade Show.

The topic today is “Is Reflexology Safe for Diabetics?”  In this podcast Lauren Slade of the Universal College of Reflexology, reports on her own research with students and the results were pretty astounding.  She also discusses the different types of diabetes, hospital research studies into the effectiveness of Reflexology on diabetics.

With all Lauren’s experience working with diabetics, she always asks all of her diabetic reflexology clients to test their levels before a reflexology session and afterwards, and always consult with their doctor regarding their medication.  Lauren is happy to report that quite a few clients had their medications reduced or stopped on their doctors orders whilst she was giving them regular Foot Reflexology treatments.  To hear more of Lauren’s story listen to the podcast.

It is a false assumption that all bodies have the correct number of bits.

Major league baseball pitcher Antonio Alfonseca has six fingers on each hand, but he claims the extra fingers don’t affect his pitching because they don’t usually touch the ball.  The condition is reported in about one child in every 500.

Actor Mark Wahlberg has a third nipple on the left side of his chest. Early in his career, he considered having it removed, but he later came to accept it. Around 2 percent of women and slightly fewer men have a an extra nipple.

The point I am making is that we are all unique individuals and to assume that a body map or reflexology map is an absolute accurate representation and mirror image of all the body organs, glands and parts is I believe untrue.

Everything that has ever happened to you is recorded in your body, in that computer that never forgets.

Every event that you experience impacts upon you with good feelings or bad.  If something gives you a good feeling, every cell in your body is favourably affected and therefore benefits.  If something happens that makes you feel bad, then your body feels bad, and once more, every cell in your body is influenced in a harmful or unhappy way.

If you want to avoid illness, be alert to how you feel all the time.

In this podcast I talk about a few of the possible explanations that can be attached to certain parts of the body when it decides to “talk” to you via discomfort or pain.
