​MUSCULAR REFLEXOLOGY with Christian Slot
​Association of Reflexologists CPD approved training that meets the Industry standards

Picture
This workshop is hosted by me, Dr Carol Samuel, PhD — the world’s first doctorate in reflexology and pain management — ensuring academic, clinical and professional relevance for UK practitioners.  
​I am delighted to be working alongside Christian Slot from the Institute of Muscular Reflexology to bring this 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 will add value to your clinical toolbox.   


Muscular reflexology is for clinicians who are:
  • Qualified reflexologists (Level 3+)
  • Practitioners working with pain, musculoskeletal issues, chronic conditions
  • Therapists who want to stand out professionally
  • Those already interested in advanced, evidence-informed practice

Upgrade your clinical confidence with:
  • Better outcomes for chronic conditions
  • Enhanced post-qualification authority 
  • Research-informed techniques
  • CPD that can directly impact clinical results 

​Muscular reflexology level 1 is the only entry point into Christian's muscular reflexology training in the UK and part of a Level 3 programme.

Level 1 is a hands-on teaching programme consisting of five face to face days, eight hours per day where a total of forty hours of tuition is required to complete the Level 1 training. 
  • Level 1 is a prerequisite for Levels 2 & 3
  • UK opportunities are limited due to international travel

You will learn:
  1. To recognise a tense muscle zone through the feet and take appropriate action to relax them.
  2. How these muscles connect with other areas of the body and their relationship to the limbs.
  3. 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.
  • 5 full training days
  • Specialist international educator
  • Small group clinical training
  • Entry into a 3-level specialist pathway
  • UK training is dependent on Christian's international availability
  • There is no guarantee of repeat dates
  • This is the only confirmed UK level 1 intake

When does the training commence?
2 days tuition on 10th& 11th September 2026 followed by a consolidation break then a further 3 days of tuition on 7th - 9th October 2026
Where will the training be held?
Bristol College of Massage & Bodywork, Bristol, UK
What is the cost?
For the full tuition of 5 days (40 hours) £850 that's equivalent to just £170 per training day for specialist, international-level CPD.  Comparable international trainings require overseas travel — this does not!

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.

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 ❤️ 👣

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.
