How to Get Rid of Acne (Forever) With Reflexology

What is acne?

Acne is basically the result of the obstruction of the sebaceous (oil) glands of our skin, and it is a health condition that, like the common cold, has yet to find a definitive cure. Sometimes it’s genetic, often it’s not. Acne usually occurs around our teenage years, but sometimes we can have a sudden outbreak in our 30s or 40s (stress or hormonal changes). Most over-the-counter treatments are intended for more superficial external use, but for best long-lasting results, acne treatment should be internal.

About Treatment.

First of all, I always recommend dietary changes and herbal supplements (to stimulate the liver and bowel movements) for a deep cleanse and detox. Also, drink plenty of water to really cleanse your system.

Successful acne treatment must include balancing hormone levels, detoxifying the body, and boosting immunity.

Being 15 years old and suffering from acne can be extremely stressful. I’ve added some reflex points to work on that will help your teen better cope with emotions. Stress can often cause more inflammation and therefore make things worse.

Ok, here it is:

The Ultimate Acne Treatment:
• Start each day with a glass (or two) of water with a tablespoon (or two) of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
• Use an herbal formula with dandelion (to cleanse the liver), calendula and burdock (to soothe skin inflammation), yellow dock (lightens chronic skin problems, stimulates bowel movements, promotes liver function).
• Cut back on fatty and sugary foods!

Reflexology points to work on (open and print a foot chart here):

To cleanse and detoxify:
• Lymph nodes in the neck
• Liver
• intestines
• Kidneys and bladder
• Lungs

For a hormonal and immune boost:
• Pituitary glans (hormonal balance)
• Thyroid
• Adrenal (good point also for anti-stress)
• glans thymus

For antistress:
• Solar plexus (attachment point on both feet simultaneously at the end of treatment)

Wow, that is a very good treatment! Give it (or drink it) once or twice a week for at least a month, along with herbal supplements, and you’ll see a big improvement in no time.
