Round About: Anxiety – Reflexology as a Gateway to Calm
Anxiety has become one of the most common challenges of our uncertain times. Up to one in four people experiences restlessness, shallow breathing, digestive discomfort, constant tension — and many other symptoms rooted in anxiety.
There is growing interest in manual therapy modalities, and emerging research*) suggests their potential to help alleviate anxiety.
For reflexologists, this offers a unique opportunity to demonstrate the power of working through the feet — supported by the natural grounding effect they provide.
Anxiety Is Deeply Rooted in the Body
This webinar explores how anxiety is stored and expressed through the body — in fascia, breath, the gut, and the nervous system.
You’ll learn practical reflexology techniques designed to help release anxiety-related stagnation and re-establish a healthy flow in the fascial network.
Beyond techniques, we’ll also reflect on:
- How to meet anxious clients with sensitivity and presence
- How to support someone experiencing a panic attack
- Simple lifestyle tools that promote calm and resilience
Some of the Key Focus Areas
- Updated theories on the mechanisms behind anxiety
- How the brain responds to anxiety
- The possible role of the microbiome
- What happens when the amygdala is “too fit”
- The Gut–Brain axis as a busy communication highway
- How emotions affect the fascial network
- Vagal tone as a background vulnerability factor
- And much more

Dorthe and Peter took a complicated subject like anatomy and made it very easy to understand as well as remember. They're phenonemal instructors that take necessary time with you as an individual to show you exactly where and how to work on your clients. This is easily one of the best reflexology classes I have taken.

Peter and Dorthe presented the most organized and professional training class I have ever attended in my adult life. As a 46-year-old veteran I have been through many classes from military training, to underwater welding, to different types of healing modalities. I was very impressed with the work Peter and Dorthe are doing. Thank you for the wealth of information I will be putting to valuable use. Cheers.

Thank you much, Peter and Dorthe. You are both magnificent, so well-rounded and empathic, both as stellar individuals and as an exceptionally integrative and professional team. I am grateful to study with you both, such leading-edge pioneers!
- Petra van Noort, New York City -
Peter and Dorthe are internationally respected leaders in reflexology; both as practitioners and teachers. I encourage reflexologists everywhere to expand their theoretical horizons and integrate the hands-on techniques from this workshop in their daily practice. You and your clients will be happy with the results!
