My husband had a reflexology massage about 5 years ago &amp; it was a totally different experiece.  It was done by a woman who is a naturopathic 'doctor.'  The setting was "professionally sterile" looking.  She massaged the bottoms of his feet &amp; even before he would tell her she hit a sore spot she would say, "You have high cholestrol/diabetes/low back pain etc."  She could tell by the feel of his foot that a problem existed.  And she was right every time.  Then she did some other type of massage that was supposed to release the toxins in his body &amp; 'cure' him of all these problems.  Plus she recommended 5 or 6 natural/herbal supplements that he was to take.  Although she got all the problems correctly, her cures were unsuccessful.
