ENDOMETRIOSIS

In endometriosis, the lining of the womb that usually detaches and leaves the body during menstruation instead does not leave but attaches to other parts of the body. The most common adhesions are to other organs, like the ovaries, bowels, fallopian tubes, bladder and pelvic floor.

This misplaced tissue will respond to the menstrual cycle in the same way that the endometrial tissue does: each month the tissue builds up, breaks down, and sheds, causing a variety of symptoms.

This, unbelievably painful condition can be eased through the use of reflexology by activating certain pressure points.
