I'm getting a bit 'fused here. Doing my M2 Element 4 assignment and have to state 3 contra-actions to Reflex. Apart from the 'healing crisis' symptoms, I can only think of extreme sensitivity, allergic reaction to the medium used etc (all those that I covered in my beauty therapy courses).
Any thoughts would be gratefully received.:D

RE: Reflexology Contra-actions
Hi Wendy
Contra-actions are the physical and emotional responses that occur during, immediately after or between treatments.
The contra-actions include increase in urination, increased flatulence, more frequent bowel movement, increase in sweat production, increase in secretions from the mucous membrane (runny nose) and worsening of a skin condition, eg spots.
The healing crisis occurs when the body is cleansing itself both physically and emotionally.
Hope this helps
RE: Reflexology Contra-actions
Hi Divadym
Thanks for that. I think I am looking into this as a beauty therapist and not as an holistic one. I will use the healing crisis symptoms.
