Reflexology: A Practical Introduction By Inge Dougans
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Inge has done some fascinating work on combining the ancient art of the Chinese Meridians with reflexology. She is a pioneer in her field being the first reflexolgist to see that there was more than just the reflexes in the feet. She takes the reader on a journey on how to interpret imbalances in the body by "reading" the feet based upon Chinese Meridians and the Five Elements. The first half of her book is how to perform a reflexology treatment. Her reflexology method differs than most books, as she believes in treating the reflexes for an organ one at a time instead of each foot at a time. By treating one foot completely before the other, you work on half of the body. By alternating the feet through out the session, you work the reflexes to each organ before moving onto the next. The second half of the book is about how to read the feet and the body based upon the meridians and the five elements. The book is excellent in explaining on how to incoperate the two ancients arts of Chinese Medicine and reflexology. If you can only get one book on reflexology, this is the book I'd get. It gives great information that you can not find anywhere else.
