Welcome...
CREA Centres are unique which means that at Inspira Academy you will learn specialist techniques for a specialised qualification: These are NOT available on any other Level 5 or University reflexology training courses.
1. DuoPody: The feet and lower legs reflect the body. The body is made up of systems. You will be able to treat every body system with anatomical detail reflected in the feet, Supported with amazing teaching / learning aides with educational films for personal support in between classes. The often dreaded subjects of Anatomy and Physiology are 'brought to life' and become exciting and interesting as each system will be taught at the same time as Duopody with the Consultant Specialists contributing 'real life' client scenarios so that the learning becomes relevant to being a Duopody Reflexologist.
2. CALM: Sometimes the intention to promote healing via the body's systems is not relevant, so we teach you to recognise highs and lows of body energy. Inspira Academy have instructed at hospices and hospitals with this technique with great CALMing effect for the recipients. Also taught at USA Conference.
3. NEPIP: Stress! Why do we do what we do? How do we combat the daily stressors of life? Understanding the psychology of Health and Illness is the basis for NEPIP technique. Add in mindfulness and consciousness, mix it together with the body systems most involved in our stress responses and you have NEPIP technique. You will understand so much more about your clients ... and yourselves too ... get ready to be amazed!
... and there is more!
