Panic Attacks - Reflexology

[samer_refaey]

Hi Everyone

I have a new client who visited for me for the first time yesterday - I did a full consultation with him and we were very relaxed and charring etc - it turned out that my client suffers from panic attacks and he says there is no major reasons but he has a fear of panicking therefore he will not get on any type of public transport (planes trains automobiles)

He is a smoker drinks lots of tea, has a 2 month old daughter , works for himself and also visits a psychiatrist. He told me he gets hormonal once a month however he is not on any medication of any sort - he has hip and knee problems - he has tried alternative and complementary therapies before however they have not worked for him so he is hoping reflex will help ( oh I hope it will i so so want to help him

Anyway I advised him of -
- cutting down on the tea
- smoking less
come to me for 6 treatments regularly to see if it helps .

The guy tells me he is not stressed out but I really think that he is suffereing!

I gave him a general treatment yesterday - there wer many areas that came up tender and crystalised so I worked all of these areas -

sinus
head
Shoulders
lungs
stomach
small intestine
kidneys
liver
adrenals
spine

Did I do too much - he said he found it quite relaxing and he was going to run out of the room before we started but he settled into it ( he only told me this when I gave him a glass of water at the end)

If anyone has any sugeestions or has treated someone with panic attacks etc I would grately appreciate your opinions.

thanks

Suzanne

Hi,
I have had several cases with panic and anxiety over the past couple of years.
Interesting to note he has had a major life change ( becoming a dad, huge responsibility) How long has he been self employed? ( stress of providing for new baby)
Hip and knee? which side left or right?
Knees are where we stand up for ourselves, where we hold our fear.. along with the hips they're in the movement centre of the body, so it would suggest fear of movement forward ( left emotional, right practical)

The areas where there were imbalances;
Head and sinuses....stress headaches at all?
Shoulders, where we carry the weight of the world...left emotional burdens, right financial and practical responsibilty
Lungs, where we have space to breath, where we have a need to get something off our chest., where we're protecting the solar plexus maybe? protecting self-esteem, self- worth, personal power and will.

Kidneys, where we hold our unshed tears, or is something peeing him off? Is his energy low? not drinking enough water, can also have a big effect on mood.
Liver where we hold our anger
Adrenals...Stress!
Spine....this is what holds us up in life.... does he feel a lack of emotional support?

Hope this might help with an all round picture!
See how he's gone on.... if he gets a healing crisis, you may wish to have some crystals handy if you use them or you could offer Reiki if you do Reiki. I have found that sometimes those with anxiety and panic can have quite a reaction to the first couple of reflex treatments, but of course everyones different.

Also has his psychatrist given him any breathing techniques or visualisation techiques for when he has a panic attack?

hope this is of help!

Great feedback Lisa!.

Sounds as though there is a worry of holding things together, and stuff is waiting to come out. Truly hope you are a great step towards his relief and sense of moving forwards in his lifex

Hi

oH Thanks a million for all of your thoughts what a greatt help

He has been self employted for a few years now but he doesnt seem to have any fears of providing for his daughter - he seems to have enough financially - well thats what he said, IT IS HIS LEFT HIP SO AGAIN it is emotional 0 there is a lot of stuff he needs to sort out so I hope that I can help him

His psychiatrist has given him breathing techniqies but he never does them - I dont know if he would be into Reiki - he would have seen this on my business card so should I wait for him and see if he asks me about it

I do keep lots of crystals in my room - so maybe I could place them under the bed

I just feel that if I bombard him with info he might not like it ,

Eve, thanks for your comments

I will let you both know how I get on with him next week

Hi

So my client came back and I asked him how he felt after the treatment.

He said - Honestly I felt lousy and depressed for 2 days after - I told him that this is a healing crisis and usually things gett better before they get worse.

His feet did seem more open this week and totally blocked areas were more crystalised, - he will be back next week again so I will let you know what he is feeling

well that sounds like progress!
Horrible as it is to go through a healing crisis it was obviously neccessary. I think I mentioned above I do find it happens more with clients suffering from anxiety and panic attacks than other complaints.

Keep us informed of how things progress!
