Spiritual Marketing and the Feet – Do your Feet hold some Keys to Your Success?
Lyn Fava (VIC)

Lyn Fava is a specialist reflexologist with a passion for sharing her skills and knowledge. Lyn became interested in the holistic approach to health care in her early days as a nurse in aged care.

Join Lyn in her interactive presentation.

Marketing is purely an exchange of energy…what you put out is what you attract.
• Have you ever noticed a sudden decline or increase in clients?
• Have you felt a decrease in energy when you compare yourself to others or feel you don't live up to perceived expectations?
• Are you aware that each of us is blessed with a unique talent, a unique way of expressing it and something you can do better than anyone else?
• Did you know that your feet reflect messages that your soul is trying to tell you?

In this interactive presentation Lyn shares her pet loves; helping people, feet reading and business. We will explore:
• What your feet say about you to identify clues as to what may be holding you back.
• Tools to identify and clarify your Dharma ( purpose in life
• Deepak Chopra's "7 Spiritual Laws of Success"

Discover the Versatility of Vertical Reflexology
Lynne Booth (UK)

Lynne Booth trained as a reflexologist, with the International Institute, 30 years ago and is the founder of Vertical Reflexology, also known as Vertical Reflex Therapy (VRT), which she developed in the mid 1990’s. Lynne’s multi award-winning techniques have been discovered and developed within her clinic for chronically sick older persons at a 400 person residential care complex. Lynne has worked alongside the medical team at a professional Championship football club and has adapted Reflexology and Movement techniques for elite and amateur athletes. She is a best-selling author, international lecturer, tutor and practitioner.

Lynne will join the day presenting via Zoom. Lynne will commence with a brief discussion on the background to the discovery of Vertical Reflexology, also known as Vertical Reflex Therapy (VRT), and of Lynne’s medical research projects involving observational studies. VRT approaches all reflexes in the body via the dorsum of the weight-bearing hands or feel and is briefly applied at the start and finish of a classical reflexology session. Lynne will discuss her two contrasting clinics for Championship elite footballers (16 years) and for chronically sick older people (27 years) and will show that these techniques can be fully integrated into conventional practice with no increase in appointment time. She will demonstrate some VRT hand techniques for participants to practice at the same time. VRT can respond particularly quickly to musculo-skeletal issues and Lynne will illustrate some of the VRT Reflexology and Movement techniques.

VRT can be applied to standing, seated and reclining clients of all ages and can be used to support all conditions. Lynne will briefly touch on the specialisms she teaches such as working with clients living with dementia and end-of-life situations where some subtle VRT-Nail-working techniques will also be introduced.
