Astounding Yes! Reflexology can support the gallbladder while improving gallbladder function and aids overall digestion function.
Who gets Gallstones?
Gallstones are three times more common in females than males. Estrogen may increase the risk of gallstone formation by affecting the composition of bile and slowing gallbladder emptying.
Where do Gallstones come from?
The development of gallstones can vary from person to person, and not everyone with gallstones will experience the same symptoms. Gallstones develop slowly over 10 to 20 years, growing large enough to cause symptoms or complications. The formation of gallstones is a complex process involving the buildup of cholesterol or bilirubin that can crystallize and gradually grow into stones.Ā
What Does your Gallbladder Do?
Your Gallbladder is a small organ that stores bile, a digestive fluid produced by the liver. Bile helps break down fats in your food, making it easier for your body to absorb nutrients. When you eat, the Gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine to aid digestion. While you can live without a gallbladder, it does play a role in efficient fat digestion. It is best NOT to have your Gallbladder removed if you don’t have to.
Gallbladder Attack Symptoms
Gallstone symptoms occur when a gallstone has moved and become lodged in either the cystic or bile duct. Typical symptoms include abdominal pain accompanied by nausea, indigestion, or fever, causing instant and intensifying pain in the center of the abdomen just below the breastbone.Ā
Large or fatty meals can trigger the pain, but it usually occurs several hours after eating and often awakens the patient at night. The condition commonly returns, but attacks can be years apart.
- Gallstones: Gallstones can cause pain, particularly after consuming fatty meals. The pain usually occurs in the upper right abdomen and may radiate to the back or shoulder. Gallstone attacks can be sporadic.Ā

- Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): GERD can cause heartburn and discomfort, which may worsen after eating large or fatty meals. It can also lead to nighttime symptoms, such as awakening due to acid reflux.
