Reflexology in Lyme disease


Reflex therapy causes blood vessels to dilate and blood flow to accelerate, causing more blood to be pumped to the organs corresponding to the reflex areas.


Thus, acupressure improves the excretory functions of the kidney, ureters, and bladder. At the same time, it can invigorate the function of the lungs and bronchi, inducing an increased exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs and bronchi.

This is how foot reflexology and acupressure can detoxify, improve blood circulation and dispel blood stagnation.
