Reflexology for Nursing Mothers/ Increased Milk Supply



God created woman with the amazing ability to feed her offspring. It's natural.  It's healthy.  We all know the benefits of breastfeeding and know that "Breast is Best" for our infant. It is not only important for proper development, but convenient and economical!   Many mothers start off with the intention of breastfeeding, but become discouraged when their milk supply simply can't keep up with their growing infant. 

In this study reflexology resulted in an average 88% increase in breast milk production for nursing mothers. The individual who wrote this article experienced an incredible 300% increase! Not only that, but other ailments such as stress, anxiety, back pain and fatigue improved over the course of 10 reflexology treatments.  Amazing!

Key Reflexes:
  • Breast reflex to encourage proper mammary function
  • Pituitary, thyroid, & reproductive reflexes to stimulate proper function and aid in hormone regulation.
  • Solar plexus, neck, shoulder, and back reflexes to relieve stress and tension as well as a possible muscle pull
