Parkinson's Disease and Reflexology

October 12th, 2011 we were invited to do a  reflexology presentation with the local support group coping with the daily concerns of Parkinson's disease.

As in all our presentations, our objectives were to inform and educate others concerning the many health benefits of reflexology. Our talk was geared to how Reflexology might alleviate some of the many symptoms Parkinson's suffers endure.  Reflexology's four main benefits include relaxation, reduction of stress, increase of circulation, and balancing of all body systems.  Some of the many symptoms of Parkinson's that reflexology may improve include constipation, depression and anxiety, posture, and sleep.
We provided new insight for many concerning this natural healing therapy with several Parkinson's sufferers signing up for a series of reflexology treatments. 

Brighton Ontario's Applefest Weekend included Reflexology

Wellness Tent was well attended at Brighton’s 37^th annual Applefest

Brighton was represented by several local complementary health practitioners for the inaugural Wellness Tent.  It was actually held at Darcy Arthur’s Yoga studio, with a sign up tent outside.  Offered were massage, reflexology, reiki, holistic nutrition, and meditation.  Participants were treated to three fifteen minute treatments for ten dollars.  What a great way for people to broaden their complementary health experience! 

Wilson & Reynolds, like the rest, were busy the majority of the day.  It was nice to have the opportunity to further educate the public about the benefits of regular reflexology treatments.  The wheels are already turning to expand for next year!  Thanks to all those who participated!      

Aboriginal Diabetes Wellness Initiative

Honoured to offer our services at Soadi

What a moving experience Julie and I had at the Soadi Diabetes Wellness Event held on Sept. 23, in our nation’s capital.  We were two, of five reflexologists who participated along with chiropodists and foot care nurses, to provide diabetes care and education to the aboriginal community. The event was sponsored by, the Southern Ontario Aboriginal Diabetes Initiative.

The prevalence of diabetes is 3 to 5 times higher in the Aboriginal Community than in the non-aboriginal community.  Soadi puts on foot care clinics several times a year in each of the six Soadi regions.  Thanks Soadi for a memorable day!
