Facial Reflexology is a wonderful energy rebalancing therapy that engages with the natural healing processes within the body. Your clients will also experience profound states of relaxation from this gentle and soothing treatment. Careful palpation and stimulation of the plentiful supply of nerves and blood vessels within the facial muscles and soft tissue not only re-energises and increases circulation but also has the added bonus of leaving the face looking smoother, more toned and radiant.

 

Facial Reflexology originated from a Vietnamese system of Facial acupressure developed in the 1980’s by doctors in Vietnam to replace more invasive facial acupunture. Following this, this style of Facial Reflexology known as Dien ‘Cham’ was first introduced to France by Nhuan Le Quang. In the same way as Foot Reflexology, areas on the face correspond to specific areas of the body, it is a gentle method of stimulation of 57 Facial acupressure points and associated reflexology zones.

 

During the non-invasive therapy, you apply light, upwards stroking movements towards the hairline. You then apply pressure to various points of the face that stimulate other areas of the body. The side of the nose, for instance, encourages healing and health in the lungs, whilst the ears reflex points promote wellbeing in the kidneys.

 

Facial reflexology is the new wellness treatment everyone is raving about for the best skin ever. It is becoming ever more popular with clients. Furthermore, Facial Reflexology is super versatile as you can offer it anywhere. This is due to the fact that your clients remain fully clothed throughout the treatment, which you can carry out using a couch or a chair.

Auricular reflexology is a fast-growing therapy. based on a combination of traditional Chinese Acupuncture and Auriculotherapy. (Auriculotherapy is a therapy developed in France by Dr Paul Nogier in the 1950’s.) Auricular reflexology is nothing new. For example, you can see records of treatments on the ears in the earliest Chinese medical books dating back to ancient times.

 

Auricular Reflexology is the stimulation of the external part of the ear. The whole body is mirrored on the ear. Stimulation to a specific point on the ear that corresponds to a specific point in the body, will bring balance to that area either through an increase or decrease of energy. Numerous nerves supply the ear. As a result, Auricular Reflexology techniques directly stimulate the central nervous system.

 

There are over 200 acu-points on the ear. Chinese Acupuncture uses all of these points. In Auricular Reflexology we use a selection of these and instead of using needles, seeds or magnets, we stimulate the points using finger and thumb pressure.

 

Benefits

 

Auricular reflexology is not as well-known as foot or hand reflexology, but can be particularly helpful for the relief and management of pain. Application of auricular reflexology is fast and easy. You massage pressure points on the ear to treat aches and pains throughout the body.

 

Auricular Reflexology is a standalone therapy. You can also incorporate it into a regular foot/hand reflexology session. It is a simple and extremely efficient therapy, primarily because the ears are easily accessible, and people do not have to remove any clothing to receive treatment. It can be used in all age groups (children to the elderly). Treatment is most beneficial when it is administered regularly, i.e. once or twice a week. Most clients find that having their ears worked is deeply relaxing and stimulating at the same time.

 

Furthermore, it is a rewarding and effective therapy that enables you to empower your clients to help themselves. You can learn a lot about a person and their state of health from assessing the ears.

Enhance your reflexology practice with the aromatic delights of pure essential oils.

 

This unique 1-day course for qualified reflexologists will teach you how to integrate the power of essential oils with your reflexology treatment to bring another level of healing to your clients.

 

Essential oils are powerful and potent and must be used with care and consideration.

 

Many people consider pure essential oils to be completely safe based on the misconception that they are safe because they are ‘natural’. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is vital that you learn what can and can’t be used, when and how to apply the oils and the importance of safe dilutions.

 

In class we will focus on 12 pure essential oils, their properties and safety considerations so that you are able to use them effectively with your clients to enhance your subtle yet powerful reflexology treatments.

 

We will look at essential oils to relax, balance, uplift, refresh, calm, invigorate and will provide some blending recipes for you to use with reflexology clients.

Becoming an Intuitive Reflexology Practitioner

 

Intuitive Reflexology is not a new technique or even a new type of reflexology but instead it is a higher quality, more connected way of working. In traditional reflexology, there is a systematic way of stimulating reflex points in each foot and both feet are treated the same way. Intuitive Reflexology is more about sensing what each foot needs the most and directly working on the problematic areas. It is a client focussed, gentle, way of working. By working with sensitivity of therapeutic touch we are able to adapt our reflexology technique to connect with and release emotional blockages. This practice is intuitive and implementation is unique to each person.

 

Another aspect that differs from traditional reflexology is the use of gentle deep-reaching touch and long holds in certain reflex points. The deep relaxation that follows is due to theta brainwave state being induced. When brainwaves slow down and the central nervous system regulates, deep relaxation take place and this in turn boosts the body’s self-healing capacity.

 

As an intuitive reflexologist you will use light touch and long holds on the reflex points in your treatments. You may also choose to use sound within each session.

 

Intuitive Reflexology really is the most beautiful form of reflexology and connection. It respects the intelligence of your analytical mind but also calls on a deeper wisdom to guide you. Your conventional reflexology training and skills and your intuition are allies. As a result, they work together well.

 

Working with energy

 

Reflexologists often encounter out of balance, congested, crunchy reflex points that do not link to physical issues but are a result of an emotional issue influencing the reflex points. The more you work the more you discover a compelling link between the soles of the feet and the energy flow in the body.

 

Centuries of wisdom from Eastern philosophers have taught us that just as our bodies have a physical anatomy, we also have an “energy anatomy.” Disturbances within the energy fields in our body can have a negative effect on our overall health and trigger any number of adverse physical and emotional symptoms. An energy blockage can manifest itself in many forms, ranging from chronic or acute pain to emotional disruptions.

During the workshop we will explore:

 

• Understanding energy and energy blockages
• Using your instinct and trusting what you feel
• Thinking, feeling and working beyond your basic routine
• Connecting reflex points for emotional balance and clearing
• Using light touch and long holds
• Working with the solar plexus reflex point in conjunction with other reflex points
• Using the breath – i.e. yours and your clients
• Working with sound
• Recognising emotional holding in the body through reflexology
• Encouraging and supporting the body to start to clear emotional blockages
• Creating the optimal healing space for your session
• Working on each other in class: experiencing techniques as a therapist and client

 

Learning to work intuitively allows you to use this gentle therapy to bring about subtle yet powerful healing and balance on deep levels safely and effectively. Hard to describe and yet incredible to experience. Your reflexology treatments will never be the same as before!

Crystal reflexology combines the advantages of reflexology with the powerful healing energies of crystals, resulting in a subtle re-balancing and harmonising on all levels, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.

 

Using a crystal to perform the reflexology, as well as placing the crystals on, around and underneath the body, can bring about a completely different reflexology experience for the recipient. They may feel a wave of peace, or knowing. They may experience a release of something they’ve been holding onto for a while. The effects for each person, from each crystal, are always different.

 

This unique course is designed for qualified reflexologists who wish to use the vibrational energy of crystals within their practical application of reflexology. It will show you how to use the healing energy of crystals and how to integrate them into your reflexology routine.

---

Course Details

 

Topics covered during the workshop will include:

 

• Crystals – a history and introduction
• Chemistry and formation, shapes and forms
• How to identify crystals
• Crystal properties
• Colour and vibration
• Cleansing, maintaining, activating
• Chakras, colour and crystals
• Selecting specific crystals for their properties
• Crystals to balance and cleanse your working space
• Use of crystals in reflexology and practical application
• Working with chakras on the feet
• Use of crystals in reflexology and practical application
• Elevating your vibrations to work with more energy
• Expanding your energetic healing abilities to work as a Reflexologist with crystals
• Crystal and gemstone layouts
• Crystal ‘wands’ or points
• Polished ‘tumble’ stones
• Chakra points on the hands, feet

 

Crystal Reflexology works in the same way as standard reflexology but with the integration of crystals to enhance the treatment and give greater results. It is a gentler treatment that uses a crystal as opposed to the therapist’s thumb or finger. Minimal pressure is applied as the crystal’s energy works the reflexes and therefore this treatment would suit anyone, including those that find standard reflexology too painful or uncomfortable.

 

Reflexologists who are looking to protect or rest their thumbs can also benefit from this treatment.
