She also qualified in Acupuncture, Herbal Medecine and Reflexology. She has a school in Paris and has taught Postgraduate students of reflexology since 1968. She is the president of the French Reflexology Association (FFPER). She holds her seminars throughout Europe and teaches in America, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
But now let us explain a little further...
Cranio sacral is the name given to the approach to osteopathy developed by Dr Sutherland 100 years ago. He saw how the bone structure of the skull permitted slight motion and noted that restriction of normal motion due to injury, trauma or disease could affect health. The cranial osteopath works gently with the bones in the skull and associated bodily systems to remedy such conditions. The Reflexologist can achieve the same result by combining an understanding of cranio-sacral therapy with conventional reflexology, since the bones of the feet reflect the skull and sacrum exactly- hence the name Cranio Sacral Reflexology.
What is Cranio Sacral Reflexology?
Cranio Sacral Reflexology introduces a new concept on the way we apply reflexology, we achieve it by using a subtle touch which is neither invasive or intrusive. Dr. Faure Alderson presentad us with a clinical reflexology course using the cranio-sacral system.This course enables the reflexologist to enhance the circulation in the head and the cranial organs through treatment of the feet. The cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) is treated, stimulated and transported to all parts of the body and the 12 cranial nerves are treated individually. These techniques are also extremely useful to help stress and whiplash injuries and can be added at the end of a conventional reflexology treatment.
The course was a succes, with the participation of 21 Reflexologists from various regions in Spain and even Andorra who are eager to go on to the advanced level but due to Martine´s full agenda, will have to wait till April 2009.
