My journey with feet started when I was 2 and I gave my first steps. Yes, it was late and I needed professional help, but I grew up to become an athlete. A swimmer, and later a waterpolo player. I was never very good at land sports and often used the expression "I have two left feet".
Then one day I tried Reflexology, and I couldn't believe the amount of sensations and emotions that surfaced just by touching the feet. This was the beginning of my healthy obsession with the body and mind connection with feet.
​
I finished my Reflexology course in 2017 and it changed my life. I knew then I would dedicate my work life to exploring the amazing world of feet. As an athlete I was always fascinated with movement and I started looking for the connection between how our feet support our body weight while standing or moving and the foot reflexes. It all started to make sense.
​
I believe feet play a major role on how your body and mind perceive space and the world around you.
Treat your feet and give your body a strong ally in health and longevity!

Why Functional Movement Reflexology?
Your feet are important because
Biomechanical Foundation
Feet are the foundation for all your body weight while standing, walking, running, dancing...
Neurosensory Integration
Feet are your only connection to the ground. They inform the rest of your body on how to react to the ground for movement and stability.
Space Awareness
Thousands of foot nerves inform your brain of where you are in space allowing you to move safely and efficiently .
They help you Heal and Restore
Eunice Ingham, the mother of modern Reflexology, was the first to realize that foot restrictions could cause problems in the upper body health and upper body weakness could also translate into foot imbalances.
Earthing / Grounding
Feet allow you to absorb the earth's electrons when you walk barefoot.
The two main science-backed benefits of earthing: Reduced Inflammation and regulation of the circadian rhythm.
