Dr. Foot Reflex Zone Chart

Q: What is a foot reflexology chart?

In Taiwanese-style reflexology, stimulating these zones with professional techniques is believed to support overall relaxation and wellness.

Q: What is the difference between foot pressure points and reflex zones?

Foot pressure points usually refers to specific acupressure points along Eastern medicine meridians, while reflex zones come from Western reflexology and represent areas (zones). Taiwanese-style reflexology incorporates both concepts to work on the body more broadly and precisely.

Frequently Asked Questions about Reflex Zone Charts

Common questions from our clients about reflexology and reflex zones.

Q. What is a foot reflexology chart?

A reflexology chart is a map showing the "reflex zones" found on the soles, top of foot, palms, and other body areas — zones that correspond to specific internal organs and body parts. In Taiwanese-style reflexology, stimulating these zones with professional techniques is believed to support overall relaxation and wellness.

Q. What is the difference between foot pressure points and reflex zones?

"Foot pressure points" usually refers to specific acupressure points (dots) along Eastern medicine meridians, while "reflex zones" come from Western reflexology and represent areas (zones). Taiwanese-style reflexology incorporates both concepts to work on the body more broadly and precisely.

Q. Why does pressing reflex zones sometimes hurt?

Pain when pressing a reflex zone is believed to indicate fatigue or congestion in the corresponding organ or body part. Pain intensity varies by individual and often eases gradually with continued treatment. At Dr. Foot, our therapists with over 31 years of experience apply pressure tailored to each client's condition.

Q. Is Dr. Foot's reflexology chart based on reliable evidence?

Dr. Foot uses a chart based on over 31 years of clinical experience and the established Taiwanese reflexology system. The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes reflexology as a form of complementary and alternative medicine, and Taiwan has formalized it as a national qualification.

Q. What is the difference between self-care and professional treatment?

With self-care you can casually press reflex zones using a chart. Professional therapists, however, identify accumulated fatigue through palpation and apply optimal pressure and technique to reach deep tissue. Our therapists have over 31 years of experience and deliver the genuine effects of authentic Taiwanese-style reflexology.

Q. Is it safe to press reflex zones during pregnancy?

Some reflex zones should be avoided during pregnancy. While Dr. Foot has treatment guidelines for pregnant clients, please refrain from self-care without professional advice. Always consult your physician first and consider treatment at a specialized salon.
