  Knowing the map of the foot zone is extremely powerful, and you can accomplish some major health benefits by understanding the basic map.  I experienced this as a new student. I learned all four phases of the foot zoning and practiced them for six months before my first class with Dr. Ersdal, father of foot zone therapy.  Once I met Dr. Ersdal and began to learn from him, I realized how important knowing anatomy and physiology was for me, as a practitioner, and for my clients to get the best benefits. Let me explain why.  When Dr. Ersdal came to the U.S.A. to teach, most of his time was spent, helping students recognize the physiological patterns and conditions of the body through acupressure signals in the feet.  I didn’t know until my first class, but Dr. Ersdal expected us to have already taken a college-level course in anatomy and physiology.  I found this out once I had an opportunity to visit with him.  During class, I was mesmeriz...

FOOT ZONING THE CRANIAL NERVES FOR YOUR EYES

Image
Did you know that you have 12 pairs of cranial nerves, for a total of 24 cranial nerves?  Wellness Life Zone, Foot Zone Academy has discovered all acupressure points associated with each one of these cranial nerves.  Wellness Life Zone Practitioners trigger these acupressure points, stimulating the body to activate these cranial nerves at a normal line of health. Cranial nerves control many body functions such as, smell, eyesight, eye movement, facial sensations, nerves to the teeth, equilibrium and hearing, taste, respiration and more. Of the 12 pairs of cranial nerves, four pairs of nerves are dedicated to the function of your eyes.  Today I will be discussing these nerves and their functions. Cranial nerves (2) – The optic nerves are sensory nerves for perimetry and used for searching the visual field of both your left and right sides up to 180 degrees, while looking f...

  The  backbone is  a series of  individual ly  aligned bones  known as our vertebrae .   The  spinal cord is housed in two-thirds of these vertebrae,  and the peripheral nerves extend out from the spinal cord and all vertebrae, and extend  to their p ro spective targets.  When a vertebra  bone  becomes misaligned, it can pinch one of the peripheral nerves responsible for specific functions.    Cervical     The cervical vertebrae form the neck.  There are  seven  cervical vertebrae and  eight  cervical nerves.    The   seven   vertebrae  in  the neck  and  the  eight  cervical nerves extend beyond the neck region to service parts of the head, brain, face, throat, neck, shoulder, and arms.   C1- If you are experiencing dizziness, headaches ,  including migraines, poor circulation in the brain, or high blood pres...
