Determination of Efficacy of Reflexology in Managing Patients with Diabetic Neuropathy: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Background. The restricted usage of existing pharmacological methods which do not seem to provide the treatment of diabetic neuropathy may lead to exploring the efficacy of a complementary therapy. In this context, this paper was devoted to evaluate the efficacy of foot reflexology.

Noninvasive Characterisation of Foot Reflexology Areas by Swept Source‐Optical Coherence Tomography in Patients with Low Back Pain

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Objective. When exploring the scientific basis of reflexology techniques, elucidation of the surface and subsurface features of reflexology areas (RAs) is crucial. In this study, the subcutaneous features of RAs related to the lumbar vertebrae were evaluated by swept source‐optical coherence tomography (SS‐OCT) in subjects with and without low back ...

Optical, Spectroscopic, and Doppler Evaluation of “Normal” and “Abnormal” Reflexology Areas in Lumbar Vertebral Pathology: A Case Study

Case Reports in Medicine, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Scientific validation of reflexology requires an in‐depth and noninvasive evaluation of “reflexology/reflex areas” in health and disease. The present paper reports the differential properties of “normal” and “abnormal” reflexology areas related to the lumbar vertebrae in a subject suffering from low back pain. The pathology is supported by radiological
