Reflexology and The Pituitary Gland
Feb 27, 2009 Uncategorized
This Endocrine system gland sits behind the bridge of the nose near the center of the brain. Many clients find that there is a sensitivity to this particular point when stimulated. There may be some issues with a hormonal imbalance or may have problems with the Nervous system in which case both systems should be worked to get the best results.
The pituitary gland is responsible for most body organs and other Endocrine system glands. It is in charge of the regulation of mineral and sugar content of the blood, fluid retention and energy levels. This gland also secretes hormones that control uterine contractions and is a great way to naturally bring on labor to a woman who is full term and ready to give birth.
If you have a fever and are in need of relief, press the pituitary reflex in intervals for as long as needed to get the temperature to drop. If you have low blood pressure you will find the pituitary reflex very tender to the touch because it secretes hormones that control blood pressure.
