A NEW SEASON
I've always regarded September as the beginning of the reflexology season.
From the practitioner's point of view, it refers to the month after a holiday or a break from treatments, a time when we have renewed our inner energy not only to revitalise ourselves but also to enhance the effectiveness of our treatments.
Those of you who follow my blogs and webinars will know that I have dedicated many years to protecting and preserving the original principles of reflexology, which I discuss and demonstrate during my online presentations. I am pleased to inform you that this archived material will soon be available for download.
It has been well over fifty years since I first worked professionally with feet.
I am glad to stay in contact with some of those who started their reflexology journeys with me, and some even before I did, and who are still practising. We all agree that the main difference between reflexology then and now can be summed up in one word: authority, which signifies control and mastery of a subject.
The fact is that there are far more complaints from people who receive a treatment delivered in a weak and unprofessional way than from those who complain of excessive pressure.
A reflexology treatment should involve applying various contacts to the feet alongside mobilisation movements. This not only frees the structures of the feet, such as muscles and joints, but also the fascia. In this way, a treatment not only influences body systems through the reflexes but also supports the body's structural integrity.
A treatment administered in this way becomes poetry in motion from start to finish.
My webinar on September 6th will explore and demonstrate this subject. Reflexology is a continually evolving therapy; therefore, it is essential for practitioners to constantly evolve to provide clients with the most effective treatments possible.
Explore, Dream, Discover!
