Synopsis:
50 patients were treated with foot reflexology focusing on 2196 reflex areas to see if there was a difference between normal reflex areas and pathologic reflex areas. These were based on average point-temperature measurements. Results: significant difference between the two.
Conclusion:
Reflexology confirms symptoms related to zones, but needs further research.
