TIME: 10am - 5pm

Open to Qualified Reflexologists.

Often when we study Reflexology, working on the hands becomes a side note, as there is so much to learn about the feet. Here we are able to delve deeper.

Hand Reflexology is a beautiful and nurturing treatment in its own right, as well as a useful alternative to working on the feet. There are times when people cannot have their feet touched for medical reasons; this therapy can be a useful tool to support, bring balance and offer the comfort of touch.

It is also a useful skill to be confident in, as some people do not like their feet being touched!

During the workshop, we will explore:

• The location of Reflexology points on the hands.

• Positioning yourself and the client comfortably.

• Hygiene

• Suitable Mediums

What to bring:

• Small towel.

• Your preferred medium - Reflexology wax, carrier oil or hand cream/lotion.

• Antibacterial hand gel for your use.

• Antibacterial wipes for use on your client.

• Pillow to support your client.

• Blanket.

Sound Healing is a beautiful healing modality that utilises both ancient and modern concepts.

Everything within creation vibrates at a certain frequency, when our bodies have injury or imbalance either physically or energetically by using calming frequencies and the application of vibration we can feed back to our bodies when something is out of tune.

Sound therapy, in essence, is a form of vibrational medicine. As the bodily cells vibrate at frequencies caused by the instruments used, the body naturally returns to a balanced state of harmony, releasing blockages in the life force energy. A process of cleansing and re-balancing.

Sound Healing uses different musical implements to create healing and these different instruments can achieve different outcomes.

Join us on an exciting Journey into Sound Healing.

This training course aims to give you the confidence to use a variety of instruments for helping others

What we will cover:

• Introduction to the principles of Sound Healing

• Working with intent

• Working with healing energy

• Holding Sacred Space

• Working with and experiencing these beautiful sound healing instruments

  • Tuning Forks

  • Chime Bars

  • Wah Wah Chimes

  • Koshi Chimes

  • Kalimba

  • Tongue Drums

  • Crystal Pyramid

  • Crystal Bowls

    Adapting your new skills to incorporate with your existing practice

This is an amazing introduction to working with the healing sounds of different instruments.

Facial Reflexology is a wonderful energy rebalancing therapy that engages with the natural healing processes within the body. This method originated from a Vietnamese system of Facial acupressure developed in the 1980’s. In the same way as foot reflexology, areas on the face correspond to specific areas of the body. Your clients will also experience profound states of relaxation from this gentle and soothing treatment. As well as being a holistic therapy, it has the added benefit of facial rejuvenation. 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 will enable you to enhance your existing practice by being be able to offer clients an alternative to foot Reflexology or to create a bespoke treatment, combined with your existing skills.

During the course we will cover:

• History of Facial Reflexology

• Introduction to maps of the face

• A Facial Reflexology treatment routine 

• Sequences for specific conditions

• Supervised practical sessions 

• Further reading provided reviewing the anatomy of the head and neck. 

What to bring:

• Couch or Reflexology recliner cover. 

• Small hand towel. 

• Pillow.  

• Blanket. 

• Antibacterial hand gel for your own use.

During treatments there will be times when you will feel an area of imbalance or a sensation that you cannot attribute to a reflexology point or zone. By looking at these areas in more detail, we find that they are often on a meridian pathway or a specific tsubo point.

Each time we carry out a reflexology treatment we are, albeit unknowingly, working over the meridians as 12 of the 14 meridians either start or end in the hand or foot.

During the workshop we will learn to feel the energy of the meridian and learn which points are affective to access in specific common conditions and which ones to avoid in situations such as high blood pressure and pregnancy.

Topics will include:

• Eastern medicine – the concept:

• Meridians

• Qi

• Tsubo points

• The body clock (Meridian Cycle)

Drums are among the oldest and most widespread instruments in the world, most ancient cultures used drums in varying forms in story telling, healing ceremony and ritual for their rhythmic, hypnotic qualities and for their ability to unite and motivate us – it’s all in the rhythm!

The deep resonant tones are very grounding while the repetition of a steady beat is very hypnotic and leads our brain into its meditation state as all primordial sounds do and this is where deep healing can take place.

The use of drumming therapy can be a very powerful one for you and your clients. While you facilitate a very deep relaxing meditation for them, you find yourself also, in a deeper state of awareness creating a temporary energetic connection to the spirit of the drum, ancestors and probably your client.

Clients may react differently to the treatment. Some fall asleep, some feel very physically aware and some feel like they have drifted off to a very happy place! Following a session, the client can continue to experience the benefits of having been in the meditative state for some time.

What we will cover:

• Introduction to drums – which ones and why

• Playing techniques – how to get the best out of any drum

• Tools – sticks, strikers or hands?

• Story or journeying – to speak or not to speak?

• What to expect and look out for in your clients – reading reactions

• Holding Sacred Space

• Adapting your new skills to incorporate drumming with your current offering
  

Sound Healing with Drums can be blended with your current energy or bodywork treatments or is a very powerful stand-alone therapy in itself.

A day spent exploring the aromatic delights of pure essential oils.

This unique workshop 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 not be used and the importance of safe dilutions.

In this workshop, 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.

• Other ways that essential may be incorporated into your Reflexology practice

This workshop is an overview of the Chakra system in the body, and how we can use crystals to support and benefit them.

Laying crystals on the body for healing purposes has been practiced for thousands of years. Each type of crystal has its own wonderful and unique natural energy that can be used in order to encourage healing and bring balance and peace; to people, animals and the environment we live in.

A day spent exploring the aromatic delights of pure essential oils.

This unique workshop 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 not be used and the importance of safe dilutions.

In this workshop, 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.

During the day we will cover:

• An experiential study and introduction to 12 essential oils

• How essential oils are absorbed into the body and the therapeutic effects

• Plants and the extraction of essential oils; where they come from and which part of the plant is used

• The importance of the quality, care and storage of our oils

• Safety, patch testing and contraindications - when not to use

• Principles of blending - including safe dilutions

• Client care and aftercare for clients

• A set of aromatic blends suitable for Reflexology treatments formulated by a qualified Aromatherapist and creating an aromatic blend in class using one of the recipes provided

• Other ways that essential may be incorporated into your Reflexology practice

• End of day – Health and Safety Assessment

Please note:

This is not a full Aromatherapy course and you will not learn the in-depth chemistry of essential oils. You will study a number of carefully selected essential oils for use with Reflexology and will be provided with a selection of recipes that you can use safely with clients.  You will not be qualified to blend for specific conditions. Nor will you be insured to prescribe a blend for your client’s home use.
