In October of 2005, The National Institute of Health (NIH) awarded Michigan

  State University (MSU) in East Lansing, Michigan, a five year $3.1 million dollar

  grant to study the effects of Reflexology on women with breast cancer undergoing

  chemotherapy.      

  I am what Michigan State University calls the lead reflexologist having written the

  protocols for this grant.  With over 28 years in a full time practice, I welcome you to

  explore all that Reflexology has to offer; whether you are browsing to find out more  

  about what it is, what it does and how it works...or if you are interested in a career

  with our certificate training program, have fun browsing our site.

CERTIFICATE  TRAINING

‘The Body Talks’©  training, exclusive of the Branch Reflexology Institute© is a nurturing and supportive approach to reflexology, enhancing the experience for both you and your clients.

The Branch Reflexology Institute presents a comprehensive picture of the correlation between the physical emotions and the mental connections within the body.  By understanding how these connections are found in the feet, you will be able to assist your clients in listening to the ways tension, stress and the emotional challenges of every day life can be stored and expressed in our bodies; tension in our shoulders, to paper cuts, to broken bones.  You will learn how to effectively apply this technique to help encourage the flow of energy to generate whole body balancing.

Reflexology is a science based on the principles that there are reflexes in the feet and hands that correspond to every organ, gland and part of the body.

Reflexology encourages the release of blockages/congestion in and around the 7,200 nerve endings of the feet and at the same time stimulates circulation and nerve and blood supply throughout the entire energy system.
