The above link is an inspiring short film from Kevin and Barbara Kunz about a stroke patient who was treated with Reflexology. It reminded me of a Residential Home I used to visit to carry out Reflexology treatments. I never used to know who wanted a treatment until arrival and on this particular day I was asked to treat a lady who had had a stroke some months before. She had been given painkillers but they had not touched the pain and she was crying with it and was very anxious and fearful. I carried out a gentle treatment, using some Precision Reflexology and Linking techniques. She gradually became calmer whilst I was working and relaxed, breathing more deeply. She told me on my next visit that the pain had eased and had not returned, and she continued to enjoy treatments at each visit.
