Hand Reflexology Headache Relief Technique  by Brenda Layou
 
 So lets start by with some water, a nice big glass please. Water really
 helps with the transporting of waste and toxins out of your body. Also a
 well hydrated body moves qi and blood flow more efficiently. 
Step 1
Rotate
 your wrists in large circles in both directions and back and forth. 
Stretch your fingers in all directions. This will be reflexing to the 
many bones in the skull, jaw, neck and shoulders. This step of the 
reflexology headache relief technique sends energy, increased blood 
circulation and relaxation to all bones in the skull.
Step 2
Hold
 your thumb near the base joint (where thumb and hand connect) and 
rotate the thumb in a big slow gentle circle, one way and then the 
other. Do this at least 5 times each direction, nice, full, big circles.
 You may find it easier if you place your hand on your tummy, see which 
feels best to you.
This is a very relaxing technique, after doing 5 
full circles do it again but this time pull on the thumb to stretch it 
at the same time.
Step3
Now
 move up to the next joint (middle of your thumb ) gently rock that 
joint side to side-slowly- and then rotate in a circular motion one way 
and then the other. Support thumb from behind so that you are only 
moving it at that one joint at a time.
Step 4
Repeat
 on all fingers, note that the fingers have one more joint than the 
thumb- so that’s a full rotation on the joint closest to your hand and 
then gentle side by sides and circles on all other joints. Go slow and 
methodical. 
Step 5
Now
 with a gentle but firm squeeze go up and down the thumb on all sides, 
then do same on fingers, one by one and slow. Take your time, be 
relaxed, be present and remember to breath.
Step 6
Now do exactly the same thing on your other hand.
Cool Huh?
Reflexology will improve your blood circulation and promote harmony within your body whilst it deeply relaxes you.
