Order in the Session (Module 2)
Class Dates: Oct 9-10 and Oct 23-24
EB Before Sept 28
The importance of the Digestive System and the details of the accurate location will be the focus. There is more going on there than just the digestion of food. This is why the Nervous system with detail on the Cranial Nerves becomes a logically paired topic. Charting all this in a logical system to allow the practitioner to keep track of the issues brought to the session as well as the progress made from one session to the next is a valuable necessary tool for the Reflexologist.

Endocrine system/Build the Bones. (Module 5)
Class Dates: Jan 22-23 and Feb 5-6
EB before Jan 14
What we call the Endocrine System provides many answers and even more questions about the mystery that is the adventure of keeping the body in balance. As we tie the Endocrine System in with the other systems of the body we can appreciate its many jobs.
Then we go about taking all the mystery out of the anatomy associated with the foot and hand as we construct those structures from clay. While we’re at it we’ll discuss some of the pathologies we find on those structures and how they translate to clues to an individual’s overall well being
