Wow! Thanks for the info. I have been curious about reflexology for a while now. I could try it and still have enough for a couple of other treatments. I might be able to tolerate a 30 minute session (if I think I might get too hyper, I guess I can always take a Xanax before). This might be kinda fun after all!

After an analysis of 8,096 clinical cases, Dr. Wang Liang reported that reflexology was significantly effective (the cure) in 48.68% of all the cases, and an effective/improved treatment in 44.95% of the cases
