Evidence context

How this source is used

Evidence roles describe what this source helps establish inside each Investigation. They are local to that use, not permanent labels attached to the publication itself.

Investigation

Can foot reflexology treat organs through mapped reflex zones?

Challenges

A systematic review of 23 randomized trials found mixed results and frequent poor methodology; the authors concluded that the best clinical evidence did not convincingly demonstrate reflexology as an effective treatment for any medical condition.
