Question:
Hello,
I am doing case studies at the moment, one of them is a young mother. I came accross something I hadn't seen before. Bubbles under the skin on the bladder reflex. Sounds strange but only way I can describe them. They are not granular crystals. Has anyone come accross this? What is it likely to represent? I wondered if it may indicate toxins in the urinary system but I'm a bit vague as to the real reason.
Be glad to read your thoughts on this,
love

Hi
How old is her baby. The uterus spreads right into the bladder area during pregnancy, so not surprising it is bubbly. Has her womb gone down well. Gently treating it and strokie from the insole to the bladder urethra area will be good for her. Perhaps she may have needed to go to the loo. I always ask my clients befor and half way through if they are still comfy or need the loo, some people are a bit shy when needing to go.;)

Thanks Jan,
The baby is only 20wks. Thanks for the advice. I always make a point aswell of encouraging the client to go to toilet before, but I don't usually ask half way through but thats quite nice it shows consideration. She had quite a difficult birth she is very young and had both high blood pressure and preclampsia. I had to check with the doc first but he thought she was o.k to be treated, I was concerned as her blood pressure was still a bit high.
She had a piece of the placenta left in afterwards and had some heavy bleeding. Since then she hasn't had a proper period, I haven't had a child so I'm not sure when things tend to return to normal.

It does take a little while to go back especially if you dont breast feed. Breast feeding releases oxytocin and encourages the womb to contract back to size. By 20 weeks tho its usually well on the way to normality.
If she is breast feeding then its quite usual not to have a period until you drop a few feeds per day.
Perhaps you could encourage her to do some exercises as that helps a lot. Pelvic floor ones are very good.
When you are in class ask your tutor and see what she makes of it, will be interesting for the other students.
The reflexology will help her a lot, and hopefully reduce the blood pressure. I had pre-eclampsia and it took a long while for my BP to return to normal and still went up and down a lot, especially as I had P-E again with my 2nd baby.
Wish I could have had reflexology, bliss;), she is very lucky having her lovely treatments from you.
