Reflexology is a form of alternative medicine that involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, or ears. While it can be beneficial for relieving stress and anxiety, there are potential risks associated with it, such as discomfort or pain, fatigue, and infection. People with underlying medical conditions, pregnancy, or lactation should consult with a healthcare professional before undergoing reflexology. Choosing a licensed practitioner, disclosing medical conditions, and following proper after-care instructions can minimize the risk of adverse reactions.
