Mention your. Response to your therapist. They may need to go lighter for a few treatments. Often with reflexology, as it stimulates the whole body, things crop up during the healing process that you may have had in the past and congestion in various areas can become free and your body is just doing its job getting rid of them properly through normal elimination channels.
This used to happen to me a lot but now I get no reaction after treatment, and during my training, there were days I had several treatments with no side effects at all as I am now pretty clear.
But I will say I drink plenty of water (you can see I have very well hydrated bladder and kidney reflexes) and strongly recommend you up your water intake before and after the treatment.
Hi All
I gave a client a reflexology session on Friday and warned her of the possible healing reactions over the next few days. However, she was literally sick on Saturday. She has had reflexology before and reacted in the same way. So, I know that it is not anything I did (well I hope not).
What does this mean? Can any of you reflexology gurus help me understand this?
Thanks

This is normal. It is like with muscles after massage - muscular ache... due to lactic acid and toxins break down and elimination
You gave advice that this effect is possible within 48 hours. You gave advice about life style and behaviour.
I usually ask to inform me about reaction and if they have I invite for re-check ( for free of course)
Usually after such detox they feel much better
