There are many different aspects to reflexology. Every reflexology session is different with each client. I had learnt to assist my clients on a physical level, but I realized the need to assist my clients on other levels to enable them to truly shine.
I did the feet reading course to understand and develop skills to assist my clients on an emotional and personal level.
Feet reading is a fascinating subject which gives you an insight as to how people perceive themselves. In the feet reading course I learnt about the energy centres of the body, called chakras, if these are not working properly people exhibit particular emotional traits. Each chakra has its own meaning, color, location, symbol, element, ruling planet, sacrament, crystal, music, essential oil, sense, associated body part, developmental age and life lesson.
Chakra reflex zones can be found on the feet overlapping the physical reflex zones. When a reflex zone is under stress or in a dis-ease state both the physical and emotional reflexes are affected. By identifying the affected physical aspects of the feet such as skin appearance, toe direct and shape, ball of the foot, instep and heels, the emotional state of the client can be identified, discussed and released. After discussing the theories and principles of feet reading came the practical session. It was fantastic to be able to implement the techniques we had learned and it all fell into place.
Lyn was very helpful, funny, informative and encouraged everyone to trust their intuition. I look forward to the many chapters to be read.

Recently I attended a "Feet Reading" Seminar with the Australian School of Reflexology and Relaxation in Melbourne.
I started my journey at 7.30am on the morning of the seminar and I thought as I travelled along that this is going to be a long day and I may probably leave early in the afternoon surely this type of course would be brief.
Well was I incorrect in my thinking--------- the day was held in a location just next to a great cafe which served good espresso. Then from there on in I was set.
The information and hands on approach was great, the other participants were like minded and friendly which aided in the experience of learning a new skill. As we all progressed throughout the day I felt more relaxed and happy to go the distance learning and looking, revising each other's feet was awe inspiring I had no idea feet held so much information and changed accordingly. I have been a Reflexologist for the past 8 years and had never experienced this new skill.
The entire event was rewarding and refreshing and i learnt to view the feet in a whole new way. This can only assist my Reflexology treatments to be more rewarding for my clients as I can support them in new ways.
