[Music] hi my name is Dr Timothy Wong and I'm a reflexologist and a natural paath I've been practicing in the tasa area for more than 10 years now reflexology is based on the premise that when therapeutic pressure is applied to different parts of the food it affects different parts of the body the meridians are cleared and vital G is released and the body can use that energy to balance and heal itself most headaches are caused by stress and tension so it is important that you help the person you are working on to relax you do this by putting both hands on either side of the foot and you twist at the same time you are applying pressure on the foot and twisting it do this for about 5 minutes and the person will start to relax then you put your hand lower down here and move it back and forth this action will also help the person to relax now to concentrate on the headache you will want to work on the wiing between the big toe and the second toe using your four finger you walk down the webing like so if the person has a really bad headache this area when you work on it will be very tense and the person might feel a lot of discomfort maybe even pain but it's okay because after a while the pain will dissipate in order to help the neck and the upper back relax you put your hands on either side of the big toe and you twist it like so this is called the tooo and what this does is help the muscles on the base of the neck and the upper shoulders to relax after doing this for a few minutes then you will want to go back to your relaxation if the person you're working on still has a headache you may want to repeat the process
