About the presentation
Judelle Scheer will be presenting on Dowsing
Dowsing is a stepping stone to awareness. It supports a change in consciousness and allows us to detect energies we are not normally aware of.
It gives us the ability to focus our perception of reality beyond the five senses and receive information from the subconscious.
Dowsing can be used for locating and stabilising discordant energy fields in your own and others personal environments.
About the presenter
Judelle was introduced to dowsing some 30+ years ago.
It completely resonated with her and she found it to be a very powerful tool for personal growth.
“It gives me another dimension to assist with my Reflexology” she says.
What to bring a pendulum primarily used for a yes and no answer.
About the presentation
Sue Whittaker will be presenting Master points for the head.
The workshop will detail the influential points of the head, their location on the head, their health benefits and how they can be incorporated into practitioner sessions.
These points are also extremely beneficial for personal self-care. The six head points selected are aimed at balancing the body as well as addressing head related issues such as headaches, sinus problems, tension etc. The points will be clearly chartered, and their properties outlined.
If participants haven’t undertaken any study on the head specifically, facial reflexology, auricular therapy as examples this workshop will be a good introduction into including head work in their existing practice.
About the presenter
Sue Whittaker has been practicing as a reflexologist and remedial massage therapist for over 20 years. She and her husband worked together in a successful health clinic, Kyneton Chinese Medicine, in Kyneton for many years before her husband retired. Sue has always had a keen interest in Chinese medicine and its principles.
About the presentation
Maureen Wilson will be presenting some master points for the eyes.
Maureen will present a brief outline of the structure of the eye. As there are many points around the eye socket there will be a focus on the master points.
These Master points relate to our vital organs. These points can be stimulated using different techniques. These techniques can be done by a practitioner or it is possible to work on yourself.
Attendees will learn the master points and have basic knowledge of working especially around the eye; however there is a full Eye Reflexology course through Lone Sorensen if you want to take it further.
About the presenter: Maureen Wilson has diploma’s in Reflexology, Facial Reflexology, Vagus nerve Reflexology and many other modalities. She studied a diploma in eye Reflexology in 2017 with Lone Sorensen in Sydney and has been working on symptoms of Dry Eye Syndrome, High degree of blindness, myopia and hyperopia.
