Reflexology - Applications
Massages

These specific benefits through direct contact are one of the oldest methods of healing of mankind.

At the beginning of a treatment we should give our clients the opportunity to perceive us as a companion for this experience. Therefore a massage starts that we (e.g.) take quietly the feet of our client for a moment into our hands, without doing something immediately. This mutual perception is a good opportunity to take a deep breath and tune into the breathing rhythm of our client. These moments are often essential for the whole treatment. The person feels accepted in the truest sense of the word. On this basis real well-being, health and healing can develop. Then we deepen our contact with soft strokes and continue our pleasant massage with appropriate strokes. Likewise mindfully, we leave the treatment again, as we hold the feet some moments after our finishing strokes.

Your massage was definitely correct if your clients who entrust themselves to your hands fall asleep or when children ask again for your massages.

Examples of massage strokes
 

Stroking
At all stroking movements we model our hands to the region we are dealing with. For this purpose is necessary to make your hands completely soft that they nestle evenly against the skin. As an introduction into a treatment we can use the yin-yang - stroking which are performed in the direction of the flow of the yin and yang meridians. These stroking cause an basic energy balance at the beginning of a massage.
 



Circles on the spot
With this massage mode, we can feel the texture of the subcutaneous connective tissue and it is also suitable for treatment. We circle slowly with a finger on the spot (always painless!) in the rhythm of the client's breathing.







 

Lymph pumping
Both thumbs massage the tissue rhythmically with low pressure in a pumping mode (especially in the reflexology zones of the neck and chest). This treatment is due to stimulate the lymphatic system and it often leads to a feeling of lightness.


 






Cat steps
This is a rhythmic pedalling motion where the thumbs softly make alternating steps on the reflexology zones of the autonomic nervous system in the abdomen. A technique to provide general comfort and balance.











Mobilizing the joints
Moving all joints gently and softly as a refreshing technique at the end of a massage. Also for loosening of the deep structures.

 

The massage techniques are taught in the seminars
