- To prepare the infusion, take 5 leaves from any one of the options we listed above and boil them in water.
Lemon Juice
- Lemon juice is great for gallbladder pain relief. The best kind, however, is the one that is freshly squeezed, and not store-bought. Additionally, it is best if you don’t dilute the lemon juice with water, as it will lower the effects.
- Simply take 4 lemons and squeeze them; the results should be around 120-180 milliliters, depending on how large the lemons are. Drink the juice without eating anything beforehand, flush it down with some water after, and repeat the process every day for approximately one week.

Reflexology therapy for the gallbladder involves applying pressure to the gallbladder reflex zone on the right foot. To locate the gallbladder reflex, trace a line from the fourth toe base until the diaphragm line. Hold the foot with the left hand and hook and backup this point for six seconds. Foot reflexology applied mainly on gallbladder reflex zones can induce constriction of the gallbladder, which has special value for treating gall tract system diseases. |
