Download or read book Foot Reading written by Sam Belyea and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2017-09-21 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foot Reading is a book that dives into the wonderful world of foot assessment head-on, unlike any other. Incorporating the physical and mental/emotional meanings of the reflexes on the feet is the sole purpose of this text. This resource isn’t just reflexology made easy. Instead of showing the same version of a foot reflexology chart present in hundreds of other foot reading books, Sam Belyea describes in detail what the various foot pathologies such as dryness, bunions, swelling, and inflammation reveal about a person’s internal and external circumstance with stunningly accurate detail. Because of the powerful information contained throughout these pages, it is recommended that any holistic-minded person or practitioner read it thoroughly and digest its concepts. You will embark with the basics of mapping the Horizontal Zones and Vertical Zones of Influence onto the feet, then advance to using the four elements (earth, air, fire, and water) to further clarify any markers present and finally emerging onto the hidden treasure of this book: how to provide a foot-reading consultation. With a combination of reflexology theory, elemental assessment, and coaching protocol, the reader will enjoy sitting down with friends, family, or clientele to share the insights present within the feet. But the journey does not stop there. Sam has also added a final section, teaching the reader to overlay foot-reading principles onto the hands, face, and ears as well, giving an extensive skill set to assess all four extremities with ease. Without a doubt, you are holding a revolutionary tome that will change the way you look at feet forever. Use this wisdom responsibly and carefully. Once you have learned to read feet, there is little a person can hide from your discerning eyes.

In determining what care to provide, the goal should be comprehensive care that uses the best scientific evidence available regarding benefits and harm, encourages a focus on healing, recognizes the importance of compassion and caring, emphasizes the centrality of relationship-based care, encourages patients to share in decision making about therapeutic options, and promotes choices in care that can include complementary therapies where appropriate. Numerous approaches to delivering integrative medicine have evolved. Complementary and Alternative Medicine in the United States identifies an urgent need for health systems research that focuses on identifying the elements of these models, the outcomes of care delivered in these models, and whether these models are cost-effective when compared to conventional practice settings. It outlines areas of research in convention and CAM therapies, ways of integrating these therapies, development of curriculum that provides further education to health professionals, and an amendment of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act to improve quality, accurate labeling, research into use of supplements, incentives for privately funded research into their efficacy, and consumer protection against all potential hazards.
