By definition, Reflexology is an holistic therapy, which is to say it is possible to treat a person in body, mind and spirit.

Reflexology is a natural, healing touch therapy based on the principle that there exist ten zones of energy which run from the top of the head to the soles of the feet and to the palms of the hands and that, within these zones, there are reflexes to all parts and organs of the body.

By using a technique of intermittent pressure with the finger and thumb, there is the possibility of reducing stress, tension and other disorders and illnesses, improving the circulation of the blood and the elimination of toxins, bringing the body into a natural state of balance and harmony in all its parts. By eliminating the causes and symptoms of disease and pain, Reflexology renews vigour and vitality in the body.

As a preventative therapy, it is possible to bring a calming action to the body, reducing stress and tension, increasing the blood supply to all cells without putting the heart under any increased pressure. It is possible to detect problems before they become serious health disorders. This therapy is not a “cure-all”, nor is it diagnostic. It can only be said that, by bringing about a deep state of relaxation, the body is free of stress and is able to function more naturally.

Learn how to give a dynamically relaxing and balancing therapy by using powerful chi energy practises incorporating techniques from reflexology, shiatsu, massage and acupressure.

Ideal for beginners or therapists looking to add this unique massage to what they already offer their clients.

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning “Universal Energy”, a word first used by Mikao Usui in 1914 to describe a healing system based on the transference of energy. Master Usui said, “In order to achieve the proper spiritual path for humanity, we must live according to the five principles of reiki. This means we must learn to improve our spirit and body with practice. To do this we must first heal the spirit.”

First Degree Reiki
Entails learning about chakras, the name given to centres of energy which are found throughout the body, and how the energies affect one’s health. The Reiki Master gives four initiations to the students during the two-day course, to open the four main chakras which allow one to make conscious contact with the infinite life supporting energy of the universe, for healing illness, or imbalance, in other people as well as in one’s self.

Second Degree Reiki
Teaches certain symbols and sutras which direct healing energy on an emotional and mental level. Almost all illness has its roots in emotional imbalance and so it is very important to offer Reiki healing at a deeper level than just the physical. There are also taught techniques for distance healing, which transcend time and space.
