The Concept of Reflexology
Reflexology is an alternative therapy that proposes a connection between specific points on the body and various organs or systems. It suggests that applying pressure to these points can positively influence the corresponding organs’ health and function. While reflexology has been used for centuries, scientific evidence supporting its claims is often limited.
The Alleged Poop-Inducing Pressure Point
Advocates of the immediate bowel movement claim point to a spot located just above the pelvis and below the navel. They believe that pressing firmly on this spot can stimulate the intestines, prompting a rapid bowel movement. However, there isn’t much scientific evidence to support this notion.
