Well, think of it this way: (as long as not allergic)Good, then we agree that discernment is necessary.
Well, it's been fun ! ((p.s. vitamins are often the need))Vitamins are not usually the problem. But we are getting too OT here. You may have the last word. This is obviously very important to you. I was trying to answer the OP and explain my reasons.
That's only SPOCK, on StarkWreck. (very popular)
And doggone near every TV western and cop show in the 50s and 60s. You pop a guy on the back of the head with the handle of the gun; he drops like a sack of potatoes.That's only SPOCK, on StarkWreck. (very popular)
Now I do realize there are some things we can do that the medical industry doesn't like, mainly because they lose money. But not everything thats natural, halsitic...etc I believe is legit or good as a christian.
For example I love to give my wife a massage. But she asked about pressure points on her body and if they worked. I wasn't totally sure at first because when I was younger I looked at that stuff but even if its "ok" to do as a christian. I don't belive it works. Alot of that stuff comes asian medicine. Which as you know is based on body auras, mystical stuff...etc. Stuff as christians we don't believe in.
Heres a image of the "pressure points" on a foot:

Does that seem legit to you? Like rubbing some of the toes makes your eyes feel better. and rubbing near the middle helps your kidney. Christianity aside my logic tells me it makes no sense at all. Your eyes, kidney, heart...etc are not connected directly to your foot or hands. Someone told my wife massaging the foot wrong can hurt her because of those same points. Again I think its all fake and comes from unchristian origins.
What do you think?
BTW I should add I was seeing a Kinesiologist years ago, they are "Kinesiology is a scientific study of human or non-human body movement. Kinesiology addresses physiological, biomechanical, and psychological mechanisms of movement.". It legit helped but they never went by magical points on your body. The would crack my neck, crack my back, massage certain parts of my body, tuck in my knees for a crack and so on to help me. And I legit felt GREAT for a week or two. But this pressure point stuff others do doesn't do anything.
The oldest remedy in the usa is a spoonful of apple cider vinegar organic unfiltered in a glass of distilled water, sipped.I found out last year a way to get rid of sinus headaches with pressure points in my face - what a relief!
The thing is we were supposed to learn the mythical and mystical in due time. It isn't necessarily sacred knowledge, but because at BEST we are corrupt, we have to stay away from it.
Sort of like the cliche of tapping into deep power, but you must be pure of heart, or it will consume you.
Because we are at BEST spiritually degenerate on our own, many mythical and mystical are forbidden because it will categorically deplete you - often to death. (If we were holy, we would have so much energy that we would radiate light. Then, perhaps we would be better equipped to use and understand the mythical and mystical - like the holy angels.)
But, God gave "powers" to His prophets, and He will in the future. They were, of course, God led so it didn't deplete them.
With that said, I would say it would be best to stay away from reflexology, and certain kinesiological practices. Not because of their "mystical" nature, but because if you know little, or nothing about it yourself it can easily harm.
In reality, it is based on bioenergy fields, chakras, and flows of energy. Some of it is pure physics/biology/chemistry, the rest is the usual mystical thing.
You need not indulge in any mysticism for reflexology or acupuncture and the like to work--it is the act itself that heals, not the mumbo jumbo with it--and it will not deplete you anymore than it depleted my nieces Rottweiler when done on him. It's called wisdom and God gives wisdom to us to use.
Did you see where I specifically stated the reason why I suggested not to do it?
Yes, there is nothing stated in the bible about acupuncture or reflexology that can not be done. You leave the mumbo jumbo alone, the chanting and baloney some might do and your fine. It certainly didn't harm my nieces dog or any other animal that has undergone this. I had acupuncture, there was no mysticism involved whatsoever, and none with reflexology, I have a book on it and there is nothing mystical about it. You message pressure points, that is it. It is foolish to say that rubbing a point on the body is mystical and otherworld and connected to the occult in any way. No one I know has had any sort of mysticism associated with any of it. I've gone to chiropractors also, no difference.
Absolutely those pressure points exist.For example I love to give my wife a massage. But she asked about pressure points on her body and if they worked. I wasn't totally sure at first because when I was younger I looked at that stuff but even if its "ok" to do as a christian. I don't belive it works. Alot of that stuff comes asian medicine.
