Although reflexology is considered a safe complementary therapy, there are certain contraindications where caution should be exercised or the treatment should be completely avoided. The main contraindications for foot reflexology are:
• Open wounds, ulcers, fungal infections of the feet or hands
• Infectious diseases
• Acute inflammatory conditions
• Pre- and post-organ transplant states
• High-risk pregnancy
• Bone fractures, joint dislocations (until fully healed)
If in doubt, it is always advisable to consult a doctor or an experienced reflexologist
before starting therapy.
