About the workshop:

The Structural Release Technique is taught as a one day workshop for professional body workers, including reflexologists, massage therapist and others. It integrates by theory and practical components. Participants work in pairs for 30mins each = 1hr total

This reflexology based sequenced technique is designed to help practitioners transform treatment outcomes by releasing, de-stressing, aligning and restoring body postural function.

Structural Release Technique has a primary impact on body posture and musculoskeletal treatments, however secondary and ancillary body systems benefit as a result of understanding the role ‘compression effect’ plays in body stress.

What you will learn:

* The benefits of the Structural Release Technique and its physical impacts

* Potential adverse effects and precautionary positions and to manage them

* Gain an understanding about body-posture and deliver a postural assessment

* Getting familiar with all the specific applied reflex areas for effective release

* Incorporating acupressure and energetic components to access subtle release

* Following a systematic (sequenced) procedure or modify for an individualised approach if required.

About the presenter:

Tony Pullin has 20 Years of Professional Reflexology experience and knowledge to share with colleagues. He remains passionate about advancing reflexology methods that deliver powerful results.

Identifying how transforming client’s outcomes makes a huge difference to them personally.  The development and applied insights to how the Structural Release

Technique impacts a wide range of health issues, yet is such a simple and practical approach, is just one example.

As reflexologists (and other body-workers) are aware, gaining our client’s trust to facilitate a healing state is something we strive for. This therapy technique offers you the opportunity to demonstrate a tangible difference in the first 15mins of your treatment session - And that’s GOLD for any therapist.

What to bring:

*Pen/pencils for note taking

*Workshop notes (in either printed or digital format). These will be emailed to you approximately one week prior to the workshop.
