If you're having a little trouble finding this point, while gently pressing on the inside of your heel, look for a little dip nested in the the more fleshy ridge of the heal pad. If it is very soft and fleshy, you're probably too high or too close to the ankle bone. If you're still not confident, stimulating this whole area will help balance the pelvic area and you'll still find relief.

 

After several minutes of applying pressure to this point or area, you should find you are experiencing some relief and in my experience this relief can last for 30 minutes to an hour. Repeat as often as desired for as long as is needed. When I was first learning reflexology, this simple technique used to get me through my shifts at work. Now, many years later I have no menstrual pain because I receive regular reflexology sessions and I use other holistic healing techniques that I teach our students in our Holistic Reproductive Practitioner training program.

 

Would you like to receive reflexology from a By the Moon trained practitioner? Find a By the Moon reflexology student or certified reflexologist in your area. By the Moon trained reflexologists and Holistic Reproductive Practitioners combine reflexology sessions with energy healing and other simple healing practices to heal the root cause of menstrual irregularities. Pain is a sign of imbalance. A holistic approach to healing includes body, mind and spirit aspects and addresses the original cause that is manifesting as pain now.
