The Reflexology Minute: The Neck

This reflexology minute is for the neck and cervical spine. Many of us suffer from neck pain, ranging from acute to chronic and from mild to severe. Poor posture while sitting or standing at a computer, looking down at our cell phones, and mis-use in habitual daily activities can cause neck tension. Neck pain can also occur due to stress and tension in one's life. It is very common that people house their stress in their neck and shoulders.

In reflexology you can access your neck through the reflexology points in your hands and feet. This is a very safe and effective way to address the neck.

Today you will learn where the hand reflexology points are for the cervical spine (C1-C7) and the muscles for the neck.
