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.
