I am delighted to be working alongside Christian Slot of Muscular Reflexology fame, to bring his training programme to the UK. Christian has a been a practitioner for more than 40 years and a tutor for 28 years, having taught this specialised programme since its development 15 years ago, to more than 600 reflexologists. He is the author of three books with his latest hitting the headlines across the world. Muscular reflexology is an effective, powerful and very different way of performing reflexology that can add value to your clinical toolbox.
Muscular reflexology level 1 Level 1 is a hands-on teaching programme consisting of five face to face days, eight hours per day. A total of forty hours of tuition is required to complete the Level 1 training.
Levels 1 starts with the basic understanding of balance distribution through the spine, bought to you through Christian's concept described as "box understanding." Each box is "stacked" one on top of another and subsequently influenced by the box beneath it. The bottom "box" corresponds to the pelvis, alongside the bones and muscles within it. The most crucial element of which is the sacroiliac joint. To obtain full function and mobility, you will engage in the full understanding of the musculature associated with this area. Christian accomplishes this by introducing you to the reflex zones for the associated muscles of this area and their placement on the feet.
You will learn to recognise a tense muscle zone on the feet and how to take appropriate actions to relax them.
You will learn how these muscles connect with other 'boxes' and their relationship to the limbs.
You will gain an understanding of 'valve treatments' in relation to our emotional state and muscle tension.
You will learn about:
A locked sacroiliac joint, pelvic instability, hip pain, lower back pain, sciatica, disc herniation, facet joint syndrome,
pain between the shoulder blades, various neck issues, spinal problems, neck posture, jaw and bite issues,
shoulder problems, tennis elbow, knee disorders, and much more.
How the course will run in the UK The course is offered as a split programme. 2 days tuition on 22nd & 23rd May followed by a three week consolidation break then, 3 days of tuition on 19th - 21st June 2025 The course will be held in Portsmouth (on the South coast) Cost: For the full tuition of 5 days (40 hours) £850 A deposit payment of £200 is required for all bookings (non-refundable), with a further four payments each of £162.50 made by standing order.

Testimonials from our first class of Muscular Reflexology trainees:
There are a few course lecturers who I have learnt a lot form, Christian Slot is definitely one of them! The Muscular Reflexology course is so thorough and in-depth, there is so much to learn and you see/feel the benefits straight away during the course. This is a course I would highly recommend as muscle pain/discomfort/restriction affects a lot of the general population. Learning the valve treatments is a huge added bonus as it provides another level to support where energy/emotions may be causing tension and blockages. I absolutely loved learning with Christian, he is so patient and understanding, and I like to ask a lot of questions! I can't wait to support my clients with even more precise and concise reflexology techniques. Thank you Christian and Carol for organising. Harriet Maton
I can’t recommend this course enough! Christian is an amazing teacher - interesting, supportive and patient. The breadth of his knowledge is very inspiring. Muscular reflexology is a different offering and I’m very excited to be able to use this to support my clients who I know will feel the benefits. Looking forward to level 2. Thank you Christian and Carol Samuel ❤️ 👣 Charlie Horsley

Christian Slot’s Muscular Reflexology course was amazing, it was intense, informative, and a fabulous experience learning new skills viewing the feet in a very different way. Christian is an amazing teacher who breaks the practicals down into techniques that are easy to understand and apply. I have really enjoyed learning more about reflexology and Traditional Chinese Medicine through Christians teachings.I’ve already seen the benefits in my own practice and would definitely recommend this course to any reflexologist. I am looking forward to Level 2. Paula Bancroft
