I’m always exceited when I discover unique ways that practitoners are using the Art of Reflexology.
Just recently, I came across a book that explained how reflexology in conjunction with gemstones, can actually magnify the experience.
Gemstone Reflexology uses 8 gemstones that allows the user to direct the healing energy of crystals to activate designated reflex pressure points. The energy has different intensities and varying effects – depending on the type of stone used.
When crafted into “sticks” gemstones can bundle and intensify energy through the pointed end and distribute energy broadly through the blunt end.
~Gemstones & Properties~

*(one of the most powerful gemstones and is a good choice to start with)

Sodalite

~Good for the throat and digestive tract.
Aventurine

~Good for sinuses, skin and headaches.
Fluorite
~Encourages interaction between the 2 halves of the brain.
~Arthritis pain as well as nerve related pain.
*Gemstone Reflexology can be performed on the feet, hands and ears.
(when used on the feet it is advised to always use the blunt end of the stick)
I myself have not yet experienced this method of reflexology, however, I am always open to any holistic approach that will support the body’s self-healing energies.
So, I guess my next step will be to purchase a gemstone or two and try it out. I’ll be sure to keep you posted on my results!
In the meantime, please feel free to check out the book through which I shared this information with you…I have a feeling you’ll find it as fascinating as I did.
It’s a real…GEM!
Be well
