I am a certified reflexo therapist, got my license from an educational centre for natural treatment MedikaNova in Tampere, Finland in 2015. I set up my own business, called Keholla, at the beginning of 2014. I have regular customers coming for my treatments, as people are looking for alternative methods for maintaining their health and well-being.
The studies of reflexotherapy consist of the basic theory of reflexology, as well as the studies of Western medicine, food & nutrition, alternative medicine and the basics of mental health. Practical studies are a relevant part of the training. Therefore I have been doing treatments on regular basics for few years already. The feedback from the customers has been positive and encouraging.
Treatment philosophy
I believe that that things need to be observed from different angles – this idea also applies to a way we should observe our health. Mind and body work together. It is substantial to listen and cherish the balance between these two. Body lives and breathes from the nutrition, so it is not indifferent how you nourish yourself. Body collects and absorbs information and the way of living can be seen in the body´s essence: the flexibility, the stiffness, the pains and the false positions tell their own stories.
I believe that if there is any pain in the body or the body is aching, it is a strong signal. Some old habit of being does not work for you any longer and something needs to be changed.
Therefore, instead of focusing only on relieving the pain, it is also important to think about what might be the cause for the aching. Having a pain is not something you can ignore or outsource, but it is a part of your body’s functionality. However, the pain doesn´t need to be a part of your life forever nor something you should just bear. Even the chronic pain can be treated. The nature of pain defines what can kind of treatment would be the most beneficial for you – whether it is a treatment of manipulation or mobilisation, a natural therapy or a right kind of physical exercise (not to forget to mention the Western medicine, when needed). They can lessen the aching or make it fade out.
Reflexotherapy is one of the preventive complementary methods of treating your body. At its best, it calms you down, takes care of your wellbeing and stimulates the body and its’ metabolism, while it also soothes your mind.
