Course content
The spine is the core of the body and treating the spine reflexes should also constitute the core of any reflexological treatment.
In this workshop nerve-reflexology will be one of the major techniques, because it is effective and fascinating to use with back problems. Using this method in the beginning of a treatment session often reduces pain and increases motility, thus enhancing the classical reflexology treatment which follows.

The main subjects for the two-day workshop include:
  • Anatomy and physiology of the spine revisited
  • Common back problems and causes
  • Assessing motility of the spine
  • Nerve reflex points for all spinal nerves
  • Reflexes for the spine on the lower leg
  • Muscle reflexes
  • Stress management via the autonomic nervous system
  • Treatment of the sacro-iliac joint
  • Assessment and treatment of the Iliopsoas muscle
  • Stimulating the whole body via the spine
  • Analysis and correction of posture

In the workshop we use techniques from Classical reflexology, Nerve reflexology, The Swedish Karl-Aksel Lind method, Danish muscle reflexes, trigger points and more.

With the workshop comes a 35 page fully illustrated manual covering both theory and practise

The workshop is conducted with a mixture of lecturing, demonstrations and lots of practical hands-on work.

Continuing Training Credits are available.
