✍️ Sample Reflexology Questions & Answers
1. A trainee asks how to locate the diaphragm/solar plexus reflex. What landmark does the trainer give?
The diaphragm/solar plexus reflex sits just below the ball of the foot near the center.
2. Why should a reflexologist avoid working over broken skin, cuts, or open wounds on the foot?
Working over broken skin, cuts, or open wounds risks introducing infection and causes unnecessary pain, so those areas must be avoided or the session deferred.
3. In hand reflexology, the dorsal (back) surface of the hand corresponds to which surface of the foot?
The dorsal surface of the hand mirrors the dorsal (top) surface of the foot, with the same musculoskeletal and lymphatic reflex areas mapped to both.
4. Which hand surface primarily corresponds to the plantar (bottom) surface of the foot in reflexology?
The palmar (inner) surface of the hand corresponds to the plantar (bottom) surface of the foot, containing the same major organ reflex areas.
5. What should a trainer advise a student to do before beginning any reflexology session?
Taking a health history and obtaining consent ensures safe, appropriate treatment.
6. Which technique involves applying steady, stationary pressure to a single reflex point for several seconds?
Holding point or stationary pressure involves placing the thumb or finger on one reflex and maintaining steady pressure without movement for a therapeutic effect.
