Reflexology Lessons from the Berlin Wall – Bill Flocco

Shortly after the Berlin wall came down in 1989 I started teaching Integrated Foot Hand Ear Reflexology classes in Berlin, Germany. Many deep and richly rewarding experiences followed during the next 20 years of teaching in Central, Northern and Southern Germany. One such highlight came via the Berlin Wall. It still impacts my life almost 25 years later.

During the Beginning Foot Hand Ear Reflexology Workshop in as parsely yet tastefully appointed yoga studio in West Berlin, most of the students were from more affluent and free West Berlin. One student was from East Berlin, the part of divided Germany that for decades had been under totalitarian control, behind the Berlin Wall.There were visual and behavioral difference between students from West and East Berlin. West Berliners were like Reflexology students in any free country where I’ve taught;smiling, playful, obviously excited about learning. They also had brightness in their eye and vibrant skin tones. East Berliners seldom smiled, seemed withdrawn, subdued. The eyes seemed sullen, cautious, skin tones lacked color.

Part of my teaching style is to use approaches that empower students to explore new ways of healing and helping themselves, and others. During one such skill I asked students to do, everyone from West Berlin did so right away, but not the student from East Berlin. My associate and translator explained to me that people who had been under totalitarian rule behind the Berlin Wall for so many years, were afraid to take risks, afraid to make mistakes. Stepping out of line / doing something wrong,under the East Berlin Regime could get someone in serious trouble. With a gentle voice, I encouraged the student to give it a try, assured and reassured her that anything she did would be alright, that it was desirable to try new approaches. So she did. I was pleased for her, but gave it little more thought, as there was the entire class to focus on for two full days of instruction.

What this short story is about happened at the very end of the hands-on workshop. After reviewing what knowledge and skills had been learned during the two days, and giving everyone their Certificates of Attendance, two of the students, one from West Berlin the other from East Berlin, stood up, came to where I was, started speaking,talking to the class and to me, then quietly reached into a bag they were carrying.

I’m rarely at a loss for words, but the symbolism of what they gave me struck deep, and still does to this day almost 25 years later. Turns out, after class the previous day, the two students, one from the West the other from the East, went to get the gift, and in class gave me a rather large piece of the Berlin Wall.

I was profoundly moved that this gift came from the free and the newly free. Not only was this a symbol of an entire people being prevented from freedom to risk, to grow, to thrive, but also, a symbol of the walls all of us have in our lives, be they external obstacles or personal walls within ourselves.

To this day, when facing new challenges or any of my own personal inner walls, I look over at this gift, the gift of the Berlin Wall, and am reminded that, walls can and do come down.

May you dear reader, be able to have the courage and confidence to face your own walls and know that with persistence, they indeed, can come down.

A One Page Abstract

The following Abstract appears at the beginning of the Research Study Published in 1993 for readers to gain a quick overview of the study to determine if they would like to look into reading the entire published study.

Randomized Controlled Study Of Premenstrual Symptoms
Treated with Ear, Hand, and Foot Reflexology
by Terry Oleson, Ph.D., and William S. Flocco

Objective: To determine whether reflexology therapy – the application of manual pressure to reflex points on the ears, hands, and feet that somatotopically correspond to specific areas of the body – can significantly reduce premenstrual symptoms compared to placebo treatment.

Methods: Thirty-five women who complained of previous distress with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) were randomly assigned to be treated by ear, hand, and foot reflexology or to receive placebo reflexology. All subjects completed a daily diary, which monitored 38 premenstrual symptoms on a four-point scale. Somatic and psychological indicators of premenstrual distress were recorded each day for 2 months before treatment, for 2 months during reflexology and for 2 months afterward. The reflexology sessions for both groups were provided by a trained reflexology therapist once a week for 8 weeks, and lasted 30 minutes each.

Results: Analysis of variance for repeated measures demonstrated a significantly greater decrease in premenstrual symptoms for the women given true reflexology treatment than for the women in the placebo group.

Conclusion: These clinical findings support the use of ear, hand and foot reflexology for the treatment of PMS. (ObstetGynecol 1993;82:906-11)

Reflexology For Emphysema

A 55-year-old lady suffering from emphysema experiences dramatic relief from her symptoms and greater ease of breathing.

Emphysema is surprisingly prevalent among people who smoke pipes, cigars or cigarettes, those who live or work in highly polluted areas, such as around spores, herbicides and pesticides, factories with high air contaminants, or people who live in especially polluted urban centers.

Emphysema results from the breaking down of the little air pockets in the lungs, called alveoli, causing larger spaces. Lungs lose the capacity to take natural fluids or mucus up to the throat and out.  As this condition worsens, people with emphysema develop a cough, because of the fluid build up  in the lungs, the result of the lungs inability to expel the fluids naturally.

Reflexology is the natural health science of applying finger and thumb pressure, using specific techniques, to points found in the feet, hands and outer ears that correspond to reflex maps resembling a shape of the human body. By placing specific finger and thumb pressure on the lung reflexes of the feet, hands and ears, in a surprising number of cases people report relief of their lung related tensions and discomforts.

For Reflexology for emphysema, first go to your feet, lung reflexes are located, primarily, in the grooves on the top of your feet.  Place the tip of your thumb or index finger in each groove, and apply gentle pressure.

For Reflexology for emphysema, second go to your hands, lung reflexes are located, primarily, in the grooves on the back of your hands.  As in the feet, place the tip of your thumb or index finger in each groove, and apply gentle pressure.

For Reflexology for emphysema, third go to your ears, lung reflexes are located in the lower valley, the recessed area near your ear canal, merely by placing the tip of your index fingers against the part of the ear in the lower valley.  In effect, you will be gently applying pressure directly against the head bone.

It is recommend that you reflex each of these areas for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a day.

When you work on your lung reflexes, if you find tenderness in your feet, hands or ears, look at this tenderness as a gift and spend more time working on tender areas.  Frequently, the result is that people report feeling better in the related part of the body.

It is often recommended to drink an extra glass or two of water to help flush toxins out of the body. If conditions persist, it might be wise to see your primary health care provider.

Like the 55-year-old lady, you or those you work on can experience relief with Reflexology for emphysema.

Reflexology For Vermont Flood Victims

On August 29th Hurricane Irene caused the worst flooding in over a century to small towns in upstate New York, and Southern and Central Vermont. The normal peaceful meandering rivers became ravaging flood waters within hours. Houses along these rivers quickly flooded and people were evacuated. The waters quickly receded within hours of the flood but left lingering damage.

I had the opportunity to provide reflexology services to 15 flood victims in Moretown, Vermont two weeks after the flood. Moretown is a small town along the Mad River, near Stowe Vermont. Many of the victims had immense flood damage to their homes or their properties and they also had harrowing stories of escaping from the flood waters.

Being a psychiatric nurse, I naturally honed into the mind-body connection, supporting their emotional being via the physical touch of reflexology.

I listened to their stories while working on the adrenal, pituitary, heart, kidney, liver and spinal reflexes of their feet. Since the majority of the clients had shallow breathing as the result of the trauma (several of the clients had to climb out of their kitchen windows in order to avoid drowning)…I worked on their lung and chest reflexes.

The clients relaxed, were calmer and some even began to express emotion. Mental Health Services had provided education and counseling to the town the previous week and all my clients were well-versed in the different stages of grieving.

Words can not fully express the experience of providing reflexology services to clients after a disaster. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. I have never been so grateful for my reflexology training.See more at: www.americanacademyofreflexology.com

Many Needs By Injured and Disaster First Responders By Bill Flocco

People who have suffered through a natural disaster might have physical
pain as well as other types of health issues and needs, such as:

1. Musculoskeletal Pain – Pain Reduction, Management, and Elimination,
   such as injuries, strains, sprains, fractures, etc., in the head, teeth, jaw, in neck, shoulders; upper, mid, lower back, hips, sciatica; arms, legs, ribs, muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, joints
2. Pain Inside The Body – Headaches, sinuses, teeth, throat, lungs, heart, stomach, heartburn, gallbladder, kidneys, colon/large intestines, uterus, prostate, urinary bladder and more
3. Anxiety – exhaustion, fear, tension, stress, depression
4. Sleep – getting to sleep, staying asleep
5. Feel, function, and cope better
6. Safe Caring Nurturing Reassuring Touch

Reflexing For Pain Relief

Since, in 1982, coining the term “Ear Reflexology” and pioneering the Integration of Foot Hand Ear Reflexology into the same Reflexology session, we have discovered that when it comes to using Reflexology for the relief of pain, for some parts of the body the feet are more effective, for other parts of the body the hands are more effective, and for yet other parts of the body ears are more effective. The question is, where would you reflex first for most consistent dependable relief of pain in different parts of the body.

During the early phases after a disaster happens, with lots of people in pain, it will be helpful to know which reflex – the reflex on the feet, hands, or ears – will help most for pain relief, not only to help relieve pain as quickly as possible, but also, the sooner pain is reduced, the sooner you can move on to help others. 

After three decades of working with all three, we give you the General

Patters of where to reflex for pain relief:

Priority Reflexing – Top Priority Between Feet Hands Ear

Brain (Headaches & Sinuses) – Hands
Jaws, Neck, Shoulders, Lower Back, Hips, Sciatica – Ears
Thoracic Spine – Feet
Inner Chest and Inner Abdomen – Feet

Reflexing All Three

We also discovered, as logic would suggest, if there is more time to reflex someone, reflexing specific reflexes on all three, feet, hands and ears, produces better results. For example, if someone has lower back pain, reflexing the lower back reflexes on all three, feet hands ears, yields getter results.

Progression Reflexing – Where To Reflex 1st, 2nd, 3rd

When There Is Pain In These Seven Regions Of The Body Reflex:

Brain (Headaches & Sinuses) – Hands 1st, Ears 2nd, Feet 3rd

Jaws, Neck, Shoulders, Lower Back, Hips, Sciatica – Ears 1st, Feet 2nd, Hands 3rd

Thoracic Spine – Feet 1st, Hands 2nd, Ears 3rd

Inner Chest and Inner Abdomen – Feet 1st, Hands a very close 2nd, Ears 3rd

Upper Arms to finger tips – Hands 1st, Feet 2nd, Ears 3rd

Upper Leg to tips of toes – Feet 1st, Hands 2nd, Ears 3rd

Where Reflexes Are Located For Each Of These Parts Of The Body.

2nd Ears: Upper part of ear lobe
3rd Feet: half of the big toe closer to the tip

Neck

2nd Hands: Inner edge from below the thumb all the way to the heel
3rd Ears: Inner edge of Inner ridge

Lumbar Spinal Column (back bones) & Sciatica

2nd Feet: Inner edge from below big toe all the way to the heel
3rd Hands: Inner edge from below the thumb all the way to the heel

Cause No Injury – Prevent Additional Injury

When people are injured, and in disasters many are likely to be, when
using Reflexology, be careful, be conservative, do not aggravate any
existing condition. This means you might not be able to reflex all or
parts of feet, or hands, or ears. You might need to reflex for very short
periods of time, 5 to 15 minutes, might need to reflex quite lightly, apply
no stretching or pulling – such as on fingers and toes, possibly need to
hold reflexes instead of using movements that move the tissue.

If many are injured, you might need to show people where and how to
reflex their own, as well as their neighbor’s, feet, hands, and ears.

Reflexology is not a substitute for Injury & Trauma First Aid
Reflexology in not a substitute for Emergency Medical Care
Reflexology is not a substitute for Medical Care from a Primary Health Provider

3-Day or 30-Day Emergency Preparedness

I went to an Emergency Preparedness workshop in the city where I live (Burbank, California,) where we were told that it is no longer the thinking of local government, police, fire and emergency services for people and their families to be prepared to be self sufficient for three days. They strongly suggested to be prepared for at least a month … a very sobering thought.

Three Day Emergency Disaster Preparedness Is Not Enough

Everyone knows the value of having an emergency kit in cars; some people are well prepared, some are not. Everyone knows the value of having an emergency kit in their home or apartment; some people are well prepared, some are not. But what about for massive emergency disasters?

Most people think,

• “It won’t happen to me.”
• “I’ll be taken care of by municipal services.”
• “It won’t be that long.”
• “I’ll get to it later.”

Since for many people, long term Emergency Preparedness is relatively new thinking, you will likely need to be creative in building your emergency plan, checklist, and materials.

Go back to the eNewsletter, 2. Checklists For Different Types Of Disasters.

Depending on different types of Emergency Disasters that might happen where you live or work – you can use them to help you and your loved ones become prepared.

In addition to what we have provided for you in that list of Emergency Preparedness Checklists, you might want to go to several other sources, such as your local city, your county/parish/provincial, and state government offices and/or websites.
