Christine Cacciola, MRP
Medical Reflexology Practitioner
Christine Cacciola resides in Edgmont, PA with her husband and two children. Christine attended Drexel University where she graduated with two Bachelor of Science degrees in Architectural and Civil Engineering. Following more than ten years in the Philadelphia construction industry Christine attended and graduated from the International Academy of Medical Reflexology .
Christine was introduced to the practice of reflexology when she started receiving regular treatments. The experience fortified her belief that the body can heal itself. She quickly adopted “at home” techniques into her lifestyle to help relieve congestion, sore throat, constipation, post nasal drip, ear aches, headaches, fatigue, & stress. The ability to treat her own daily or occasional health issues was motivation to treat her children from the time they were newborn infants. Witnessing the benefits her own children received further propelled her into the education process and she entered the International Academy of Medical Reflexology. Christine’s clinical school work allowed her to follow ten case study patients, each receiving ten consecutive treatments, with a minimum of one treatment per week. The positive results experienced by the case study patients were further motivation to enter the healing community and treat individuals outside her family.
A few examples of the positive results case study patients experienced with regular reflexology treatments:
- Decrease in post nasal drip/congestion/sinus pressure/allergy symptoms
- Reduced swelling & fluid retention in the body overall and at specific joint locations
- Improved mobility for patients having stiff joints within one treatment
- Reduced or eliminated sciatica
- Reduced the duration of gout flair up
- Relieved neck, back, hip & knee stiffness and pain
- Relieved ear pain & headaches
- Improved nail health on toes and fingers
- Relieved muscle soreness, fatigue and increased flexibility
- Relieved panic attacks and anxiety.
- Improved sleep
- Relieved stress and restored natural energy.
Medical Reflexology is a complementary, biological, integrative, blended health science, through which an exercise pressure is applied to REFLEX AREA’s formed by 7,200 nerve endings in each hand and foot, encouraging improved instruction to each and every single organ, gland and part of the body, thus persuading the body to biologically correct, strengthen and reinforce itself.
“Each patient carries his own doctor inside him. We are at our best when we give the Doctor who resides within – a chance to go to work” Dr. Albert Schweitzer
