Karen Ball thai foot reflexologyby Karen Ball

I learned Thai reflexology in 2003, and fell so totally in love with the philosophy and experience of giving and receiving this beautiful modality that I just had to turn others onto this amazing art.

Over the many years of teaching Thai Foot Reflexology, the one constant from attendees was a curiosity to know more about the sen lines, and how Thai reflexology intersected with the western style that most of us have been introduced to in North America.

So, in response to those queries I created a 1-day Advanced Thai Reflexology class that explained how the two models relate (ie. which western reflex points the Thai sen lines run through, and which systems in the body were governed by which sen lines), and also give a more in-depth look at the philosophy of the practice.

Sen

The Thai sen are what we would refer to as meridians or energy lines. They actually resemble the Ayurvedic energy lines (nadis) more than they do the Chinese meridians though, in that they do not correlate with any organ system in the way that the Chinese meridians do.

The Thai meridians all begin at the navel and end at the extremities of the body and are used to address any and all organ systems through which they pass along their course. In that way, the sen more resemble the zones of Chinese reflexology rather than acupuncture.

and Now

Fast forward now to 2016, and I have decided to combine the initial 2-day and the advanced 1-day into a 3-day training I am calling Traditional Thai Reflexology. Enough people have indicated to me that this is the better format for their learning and time schedule.

Video

I am also responding to requests that I provide a video of the hands-on protocol, in addition to the diagramed step-by-step manual that is included with tuition. So, I’m doing that also!

Beginning with the first Traditional Thai Reflexology training at FSM on September 10, 11 and 12, all participants will be given lifetime access to a video demonstration of the protocol for review purposes.

Anyone reading this who took the initial 2-day Thai Foot Reflexology workshop with me over the last 10 years is also eligible to receive that added bonus. Just shoot me a quick email with the year and location that you attended. I’ll add you to the invitation list. karen@academyofancientreflexology.com

Discount

And one more offer! If you took the initial Thai Foot Reflexology workshop with me in the past and would like to attend the Traditional Thai Reflexology training at FSM to brush up on your technique, you may do so at a reduced price. Again, just shoot me an email with the year and location that you attended, and I’ll send you instructions on how to go about doing that.

I hope that you will join us on September 10 and experience for yourself what so many others have claimed as “the ultimate in relaxation and rejuvenation”. Follow this link for a description and all details.

Also, in case you’re wondering, no previous reflexology training is necessary to attend the Traditional Thai Reflexology workshop. This training is perfect for massage therapists and certified reflexologists; the techniques are completely different than what is practiced in conventional western reflexology.
