Reflexology revealed: a healing technique good enough for the Royal Family

Increased energy flow, a flood of endorphins and instant relaxation – these are just a few benefits possible through reflexology, a popular healing technique originating from Ancient Egypt.

Reflexology is a technique which stimulates the body’s own natural healing response through pressure applied to reflex points in the feet and hands.

“Reflexology has proved useful in treating conditions including infertility, hormonal imbalances, sleep disorders, PMS and headaches. It has also helped treat children with ADHD and babies with earaches, colic and gum pain,” said Director of Education Endeavour College of Natural Health Dr Nicholas Vardaxis.

“Reflexology is one of the fastest growing natural therapies and is making its mark on popular culture, with fans including Prince Charles, Muhammad Ali and Sarah Jessica Parker.

“Australia needs more highly qualified and skilled practitioners to meet the growing demand for this service. Reflexology is becoming big business, with the service even offered today for an extra fee at select hairdressers around Australia.”

Endeavour College of Natural Health offers Weekend Short Courses in Reflexology in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide and a Diploma of Reflexology in Brisbane and Sydney commencing in Semester 2. For more information contact 1300 462 887 or visit www.endeavour.edu.au.
