Demonstration of Basic VRT and Sinergistic VRT (from left to right)

On the 10th and 11th of March 2006 Edireflex organised for the first time in Spain the "Vertical Reflex Therapy" presented by it´s creator Lynne Booth.
Vertical Reflex Therapy (VRT) is a unique reflexology technique where the feet are briefly treated in a standing, weight-bearing position, allowing deeper access to reflex points and possibly new, reflexes are accessed. The course introduces new reflex points such as zonal triggers and a new point for the ovaries/ testes. VRT complements and enhances the results of a conventional reflexology treatment.
The course was structured as a two day workshop providing a Basic introduction to VRT followed by a second day of more advanced techniques. The basic workshop consisted of the the basic concepts and techniques of VRT, along with synergistic reflexology. At the end of the workshop and thanks to it´s easy application the participants were able to integrate the technique immediately into their practices. In the advanced workshop a variety of new techniques were introduced and updates on the further development of Vertical Reflex Therapy and Synergistic Reflexology were taught, as well as the 20 minute Complete VRT / Reflexology treatment .
The workshops were very interesting and the participation was quite mixed with reflexologists coming from France, and Switzerland. Everybody left the course with an array of new tools and the posssibility to integrate the techniques they had acquired into their conventional reflexology treatments or when applicabe to use VRT as a stand alone technique.
Overall the workshops were a success, and the high level of knowledge demonstrated by the participants (quote by Lynne Booth) allowed us to move quickly through the workshops and thoroughly enjoy the case studies and anecdotes presented and shared by Lynne Booth.
Such was the success of the workshops that we hope to repeat the experience in the near future. Unfortunately due to Lynne´s busy schedule we will have to wait until 2008.
