Synopsis:

32 children, ages 7-11, were divided into 2 groups. The active group, consisting of 17, were given 14 reflexology sessions for 4 months; and the inactive group, consisting of 15 children, had no reflexology. The study compared morning versus evening diuresis measurements and the parents kept a night log. In conclusion, there was no significant difference in total bedwetting between the two groups.

Conclusion:

	The use of reflexology in the volume and frequency administered over the study period did not significantly reduce enuresis nocturna in the targeted group.
