6:00pm - 7:00pm CET (Central European Time)
This event is part of the series: To the Point
In this 60-90 minutes webinar we explore the brain’s virtual body – the sensory and motor homunculus – and how it directly shapes pain, movement and recovery.
You’ll learn how reflex points connect into the somatosensory and motor cortex, creating a fast route for pain modulation and motor re-activation.
Particular attention will be given to the use of homunculus reflexes on the feet and how stimulation of these areas may be used as a practical tool to influence cortical activity, reduce pain, and help activate underperforming muscles.
Practical reflexology strategies grounded in modern neurophysiology.
Topics include
- The sensory and motor homunculus
- How the brain creates a virtual body
- The homunculus reflexes on the feet
- Using cortex reflexes for pain reduction
- Improving muscle activation through cortical stimulation
- Linking symptom areas to their cortical representation
- New research on the connection between movement, cognition, and body regulation
- Practical applications for reflexologists
Join us for a practical and clinically relevant introduction to one of the most fascinating concepts in neuroscience—and discover how working with the brain's virtual body may open new possibilities for treating pain and improving function.

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 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!

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!

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.
