Coverage varies by insurance provider and policy. Contact your insurance company to determine if reflexology is covered under your plan.

Reflexologists believe that pressure applied to these specific points can promote health in the corresponding organs through energetic pathways and improve general health and wellness.

Common benefits reported include relaxation, stress reduction, improved circulation, and support in managing various health conditions such as headaches, sinus issues, and digestive problems.

No, reflexology is more specific than a simple foot massage. While both promote relaxation, reflexology aims to enhance healing and recovery in various parts of the body through targeted pressure points.

Reflexology is not used to diagnose or cure health disorders. It is intended to improve overall health and wellness and may help reveal areas of tension or stress.

During your first session, the reflexologist might ask about your health history and goals. You’ll likely be seated or lying down while the reflexologist applies pressure to specific areas of your feet, hands, or ears.

Typically, a reflexology session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. However, the duration can vary based on the client's needs and the practitioner's recommendations.

Some points may be tender when pressed, especially if there’s tension or an imbalance, but the overall experience should be relaxing. Communicate with your reflexologist if you feel discomfort.

Most people do not experience adverse effects. Some might feel sleepy, nauseous, or emotional after a session, but these symptoms usually subside quickly.

People with foot ulcers, recent injuries, or circulatory problems affecting the lower extremities should consult a healthcare provider before trying reflexology.

Pregnant women should consult with their healthcare provider before receiving reflexology. Some practitioners specialize in maternity reflexology and can tailor treatments to suit pregnancy needs.

This varies based on individual needs. Some people enjoy weekly sessions, while others benefit from a session once a month. Discuss your goals with your reflexologist to create a suitable schedule.
