Course in Reflexology - 'Foot Massage'
Foot massage is a technique belonging to the field of Holistic Medicine, which
stimulates the body’s organic, lymphatic, nervous and muscular systems. Our feet reflect all parts of the body, according to real and specific correspondences and this makes it possible to reach these parts through a reflexive action.
According to reflexology the human body is a sensitive organism which – in order to keep its vitality and thus a perfect state of health - should maintain in perfect balance all of its components. Through reflexology we can intervene on the main problems, due to stress or to other types of tensions, by relaxing and invigorating the whole body, working on the Feet. Furthermore one may intervene with estreme efficacy on the lymphatic, cardio-vascular, reproductive, nervous and muscular systems.
Attendance to the Course is open to all those people who are interested in Foot Massage for professional reasons, as well as to those who wish to attain a deeper knowledge of themselves and other people.
