Whilst giving my sister a massage yesterday I discovered a 'clicky' nodule on her rigth foot in the area marked on the reflexology diagram as the parathyroid/bronchial.
I start my reflexology course in a few weeks so don't know what this could mean or how to healp break it down, it is quite tender.
She in good health at the moment although has just been diagnosed as depressed, she has also started walking more recently.
Any ideas?
TIA

RE: nodule in right foot
The parathyroid reflex is also the oseophacus (sorry about the spelling) reflex, has she had a sore throat?
It is not unusual for the Thyroid and Parathyroids to be slightly crunchy if someone has been under the weather, or even depressed as the body is trying to balance itself.
Good luck with your training.
RE: nodule in right foot
The parathyroid also helps with balance of calcium and fluids, so it's possible she may be a little deficient in calcium or dehydrated. Also don't forget that imabalances can be emotional - so the throat area may signify, say, her not being able to speak out about something???
