How to Read a Foot Reflexology Chart



Reflexology is the art of applying pressure to the hands and feet at various locations to heal. Certain areas of the hands and feet correspond to various body parts. Reflexology is used for healing, stress reduction and regaining equilibrium. While reading a foot reflexology chart may seem overwhelming, it's not as hard as it seems if you keep some things in mind.









1


Get a foot reflexology chart in color. This can make it much easier to know how far certain areas extend in the feet. It can also make it easier to know what area you're focusing on. There are even some charts on the web that are interactive.





2


The foot has a top and a bottom. When you read a reflexology chart, find out whether you're looking at the top or bottom of the foot.

Each foot not only corresponds to parts of the body, but to specific sides of the body as well. The left foot reflects the left side of the body, while the right foot reflects the right side. The spine runs from the inside of the feet, while the outsides of the body correspond to the outside of the feet. Keeping this in mind may make reading a reflexology chart a little easier.
