Foot Reflexology

Foot reflexology is a manual therapeutic method based on the stimulation of specific reflex points located on the feet, which correspond to individual organs and body systems. Through precise pressure applied to selected zones, it is possible to influence overall body function, reduce tension, and support the body’s natural self-regulation processes.

The treatment promotes physiological balance, improves circulation, induces deep relaxation, and enhances overall well-being. This lesson introduces participants to foot reflexology maps, principles of interpreting tender or sensitive points, and techniques for safe, conscious manual work.

The learning process includes theoretical instruction, video materials, step-by-step guidance, and a certificate of completion, preparing participants to independently perform foot reflexology treatments in professional practice.
