Recent randomized controlled trials (RCT) which are the Gold Standard of clinical research, have shown that Reflexology was both clinically and statistically significant in reducing pain. The analgesic effects of Reflexology was shown to be between 42% to 48% more effective in reducing pain, compared to the standard of care group.The most significant pain reduction in the reflexology group was observed among patients who had moderate‐severe baseline pain. Study participants included patients who were admitted to the general surgery department. The paper, published last year by the University of Haifa, goes on to conclude that: "Adding reflexology to standard analgesic care is effective in reducing postoperative pain at rest and in motion, especially for patients experiencing moderate to severe pain".
