Course content
Treating neck problems is a great challenge
The neck has a much greater influence on our health and well being than most people are aware. It remembers all the shocks, bumps, wrings, tensions and strains it has been subjected to during a lifetime. It is also well worth noticing the psychosomatic aspects of the neck. Many people’s reaction to stress can get stuck as neck problems.
If you posses the skills to effectively treat neck problems – you will never run out of clients!

The neck remembers everything!
The cervical spine has an ability to remember every bump, twist, tension and misuse it has been subjected to during a lifetime. No wonder so many clients have neck problems or cervical headache.
Being able to offer a lasting reflexology treatment requires a sound knowledge about the many factors involved with problems like:

• acute neck pain
• arthrosis
• recurring neck tensions
• slipped disc in the neck
• whip-lash injury

We also investigate other subjects related to the cervical spine:

• facet joints and muscles
• importance of the sternocleidomastoid muscle
• nerve reflex points for the neck
• palpating cervicals, facet joints and muscles
• assessment of motility
• trigger points
• connections via the high cervical spine
• digestion issues and the vagal nerve
• breathing
• stress
 
Appreciating the important influence from the neck to other parts of the body, will make neck treatment a natural part of any reflexology session.

You will learn to apply techniques from Classical Reflexology, Nordic traditions, Nerve Reflexology, trigger points, tests and exercises.

With the workshop comes an extensive fully illustrated manual covering both theory and practise.

The course will be conducted with a mixture of lecturing, demonstrations and lots of practical hands-on work.

Continuing Training credits are available.

Words of recommendation from Sharon Stathis

Denmark is something special….! Reflexology is the mostly used complementary therapy, used by ¼ of the population. Dorthe Krogsgaard and Peter Lund Frandsen represent the high standards of Danish reflexology in an inspiring and professional way.
I highly recommend their workshop, knowing it will be presented with lots of experience and humour!
