The idea on which the reflexology of the hand rests is that specific areas of the hands correspond and are connected to specific organs, nervous structures, joints, etc.
For the moment, there are several doubts about the effective therapeutic power of hand reflexology: none of the scientific studies conducted so far, in fact, have demonstrated the validity of the idea underlying the practice in question.
The theories on the mechanism of operation of the reflexology of the hand, as well as the fields of application (uses), are numerous.
Among the conditions that hand reflexologists believe they can alleviate through their particular massage technique, the best known are: asthma, respiratory tract infections, indigestion, migraines, back pain and chronic pain. .
Hand reflexology is a particular sector of the so-called reflexology, which also includes foot reflexology, a technique extremely similar to the one in question except for the fact that the soles of the feet are the subject of pressure and massage.
Often, the terms "foot reflexology" and "reflexology" are used interchangeably. This is due to the fact that, compared to hand reflexology, plantar reflexology is much more common, enjoys greater notoriety and is considered, by its practically, the true fulcrum of reflexology.
