Are You a "Highly Sensitive Person"? How Reflexology Tripled Parasympathetic Activity (Case Study)
Are You a "Highly Sensitive Person"? How Reflexology Tripled Parasympathetic Activity (Case Study)
Do loud noises easily startle you? Does the atmosphere of a room affect your mood instantly? Do you lie in bed at night with your heart pounding, unable to switch off your brain?
If you’ve ever been told, "You are just too sensitive," please know this: It is not a flaw in your personality. It is an imbalance in your nervous system.
Located at Gangnam-gu Office Station (Exit 2), Jeongyeon Foot Massage has spent 28 years balancing the nerves of thousands of clients. Today, I want to share why acupressure is the ultimate remedy for sensitive individuals and reveal a real client case study where parasympathetic nerve activity increased by 300% after 3 months.
1. The Science of Sensitivity: Stuck in "Fight or Flight"
If we touch the bodies of clients who identify as "sensitive" or HSPs (Highly Sensitive Persons), they share a common physical trait: Their necks and shoulders are rock-hard, and their abdomens are cold and tense.
This happens because their Sympathetic Nervous System (the "Fight or Flight" mode) is permanently switched ON. While others switch to the Parasympathetic Nervous System (the "Rest and Digest" mode) when they relax at home, a sensitive person's brain remains on high alert, scanning for threats even while lying in bed.
This is why you feel chronically exhausted despite sleeping. Your internal engine never stops running.
2. Acupressure: The Manual "Off" Switch
If you cannot relax on your own, you need a manual override. That is the role of Deep Tissue Acupressure.
At Jeongyeon, we don't just rub the skin. We target specific nerve clusters along the spine and the soles of the feet (where nerve endings congregate).
By applying precise, deep pressure to these points, we send a powerful signal to the brain via the Vagus Nerve:
" The danger is over. It is time to rest."
This forces the overactive Sympathetic nerves to calm down and reactivates the dormant Parasympathetic nerves.
3. [Case Study] "My Doctor Was Shocked": A 300% Increase in Recovery Data
We don't just rely on feelings; we rely on results. Let me share the story of a client who suffered from severe insomnia and anxiety. She committed to a 3-month program with us.
After her course, she visited a hospital for an Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) function test. The results were astounding.

"My doctor looked at the chart and asked what I had been doing. He said my Parasympathetic Nerve Activity (recovery ability) had tripled compared to 3 months ago. For the first time in years, I am sleeping deeply."
This is the power of consistent acupressure. It didn't just "feel good" for an hour. It fundamentally rewired her nervous system's baseline, proven by medical data.
4. Why the "3-Month" Rule Matters
You might ask, "Can't I just come once?" While one session provides relief, your brain has a habit called Homeostasis. It wants to return to the "anxious state" it has known for years.
To convince your brain that "Relaxation is the new Normal," you need repetition. Three months is the biological window required to break old neural patterns and establish a new, balanced baseline for your nervous system.
5. Turning "Sensitivity" into a Superpower
When your nervous system is balanced, your "painful sensitivity" transforms into "refined intuition" and "creative delicacy."
Don't fight your nature. Just balance it. If you are tired of being "too sensitive," let a 28-year expert reset your switch.
