Causes of pain in the kidney reflex zone on the soles of the feet

Most people may not know what the reflex zone of the sole of the foot refers to. It means that each organ in the human body has a corresponding part on the sole of the foot. By massaging the corresponding part, the state of organ function can be adjusted. So the kidneys also have their relative position on the soles of the feet. So what is the cause of the pain in the kidney reflex area on the soles of the feet? Today I will tell you the reasons for pain in the kidney reflex area on the soles of the feet.

Foot reflexology is an ancient yet novel treatment method. It originated in China, spread abroad hundreds of years ago, flourished and bore fruit abroad, and became popular in Western countries, especially in East Asia, Japan, Central and South Asia (Southeast Asia), Vietnam and other countries.

The kidney reflex zone is located on the midline of the intersection of the upper third and the lower two-thirds of the sole of the foot, which is divided into three equal parts without the toes. It is normal to feel soreness when pressing the acupoints, but tingling or dull pain is an abnormal reaction. According to the theory of reflex system, an abnormality in a certain reflex area indicates an abnormality in its corresponding organ. If there is no organic abnormality in the kidney, it is recommended to drink more water, eat some diuretic and draining foods such as watermelon and winter melon, strengthen kidney metabolism, and the condition will naturally be relieved.

With the reform and opening up, this traditional method of curing diseases has returned to the motherland. Thanks to the efforts of many experts and scholars, the application of traditional Chinese medicine theories and methods has revitalized foot reflexology therapy both in theory and in the application of specific operating techniques, and has once again taken the leading position in this field in the world. From the perspective of bioholography, the foot area is equivalent to a holographic embryo that reflects information from the entire body. Because the feet are densely populated with blood vessels and nerves, the three yin and three yang meridians of the foot are interconnected in the feet and connected to the whole body through the meridian system. Therefore, the feet are a place where information from the human body is relatively concentrated. Various physiological and pathological information can be manifested in the feet. In clinical application, certain reflex areas are selected for combination according to different diseases. Through the stimulation of the foot reflex areas by massage techniques and scraping therapy, the functions of the corresponding organs, meridians, qi and blood can be adjusted, thereby achieving the purpose of treating the disease.

Symptomatic efficacy

As a treatment method for regulating the body's internal functions, foot reflexology therapy has a significant effect on diseases of all systems throughout the body. Such as gastrointestinal dysfunction, diabetes, hypertension, neurosis, etc. in internal medicine; bone hyperplasia, soft tissue injury, etc. in orthopedics; menstrual disorders, menopausal syndrome in gynecology; cerebral palsy, ADHD, respiratory tract infection, etc. in pediatrics.

"There are tens of millions of nerves and blood vessels in the soles and toes. Even if you don't massage the reflex areas, just a slight massage of the soles still has health benefits."

In terms of treatment, foot massage stimulates the points, lines, belts and areas on the soles of the feet and sides of the legs. It is not just a pure massage of the reflex areas of the soles of the feet. The ultimate goal is to relax the meridians and relax the nerves.
