Our mission is to advance the understanding and knowledge of Reflexology, both for its members and society. We will accomplish this by:

  • public awareness and activities in local health events.
  • establishing and maintaining the educational criteria necessary for the profession and by the continual development of professional standards for excellence and competence.
  • providing and enforcing a Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct for the benefit of registered practitioners and their clients.
  • providing a supportive environment for mentorship and camaraderie for Reflexology Practitioners in British Columbia.

Car pool and bring a friend or guest. tea/coffee, healthy snacks are served at most functions. Non-members are always welcome at local meetings.

The board encourages the discussion of new ideas for the Association and would like to see the participation of all members at local meetings. Meetings are for continuing education, some will be for sharing experiences, while others will have a guest speaker that will provide insight into therapeutic techniques.

Facial Reflexology

Sorensensistem TM

 

Facial Reflexology Sorensensistem TM

Facial Reflexology Sorensensistem was devised by Lone Sorensen, for whom it has won three honorary awards from the World Humanitarian Organisation for Health, Argentina . Over the past 30 years, she has been developing this powerful system of healing, drawing on acupuncture theory and traditional South American Indian practices and combining these with the stimulation of neurological points, to affect the whole body. The facial zones are initially assessed to identify the primary imbalance or cause of symptoms disease. Treatment involves a range of techniques including the stimulation of acu-points and meridian zones, cranial points and zones, as well as specific nerve points chosen from 564 present in the face. As with Foot or Hand Reflexology, the effects can be profound and far-reaching. Stimulation of the facial nerves provides a direct route to the brain. Lone has found that Facial Reflexology works very quickly into the central nervous system, has few contra-indications and is particularly beneficial for neurological disorders, including pain control. She continues to develop the therapy and has devised a range of additional techniques, including her highly regarded Temprana therapy , especially devised for children. In Facial Reflexology, it is the condition of the underlying facial tissues that is read, to assess the condition of the body's energy systems. Fine lines and wrinkles, though, have their own place in reflecting our health. Lone continues to develop the therapy and has devised a range of special techniques, i ncorporating the use acupuncture points and natural oils on the face, to form a holistic and wonderfully effective face-lifting therapy which rejuvenates the facial tissues, thereby providing a natural and holistic beauty treatment.

Facial Reflexology is also especially relaxing and enjoyable to receive!
