Description

The field of natural therapies is an emerging field of health sciences, which is being incorporated gradually and complementarily to traditional health structures. But in order to be able to respond to this emerging need, it is essential to have an adequate specialization"

The multiplicity of names used to refer to Natural Therapies has led to the existence of different definitions and classifications. The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) has proposed a pragmatic classification of natural therapies into five areas, according to which Reflexology would fall into the area of manipulative and body-based practices, which emphasize the manipulation or movement of one or more parts of the body under the fundamental belief that all body systems work together in an integrated manner and, therefore, disorders in one system can affect the functioning in other parts of the body. In the case of Foot Reflexology, reflex points located on the feet are stimulated through the application of pressure with the aim of obtaining beneficial reactive effects on other organs and body functions.

Postgradaute Certificate in Foot Reflexology

It was Dr. William H. Fitzgerald, head physician of the otolaryngology department at St. Francis Hospital in Connecticut, who in 1913 observed that by exerting pressure on specific areas of the hands or feet, analgesic effects were generated in other areas of the body. This therapeutic method, which has its original basis in traditional Chinese medicine, became an integrative complement in the treatment of certain diseases. The Postgraduate Certificate in Foot Reflexology offered by TECH Global University addresses this method focusing specifically on the sensitive manipulation of the feet from the physiotherapeutic approach. Through a completely virtual course, the student will acquire the appropriate skills to generate reactive and beneficial responses on organs and functionalities of the body, mitigating the ailments that cause certain pathologies. This objective will be achieved through manual application exercises with or without the use of instrumentation, previously knowing the reflexological mapping of the part involved. Many of the academic offers in postgraduate courses leave aside the alternative therapeutic models without considering the great benefits they can imply in the patient. Here at TECH we bring you closer to the unexplored side of medicinal techniques.

Update your knowledge of reflexology

There was a time when alternative therapies and medicine were considered polar opposites. The scientific rigor of the latter clashed with the seemingly subjective postulates of the former. However, technological advances and paradigm shifts in science have revindicated some of these therapies (although several still remain in the realm of stigmatization), such as reflexology itself. In 1933, Drs. Olesson and Floc conducted a study with 83 women to investigate whether, using reflexology therapy, they could reduce premenstrual pain. The results (the report of which can be found in the National Library of Medicine) revealed a significant reduction in symptoms. The University Course that we offer, endorsed and taught by health professionals with extensive medical-clinical experience, will incorporate to your skills, a highly useful knowledge when interacting with your patients and alleviate their ailments.
