What is Functional Reflex Therapy?

The Functional Reflex Therapy Framework supports the mental health and well-being of children and adults with high levels of anxiety and stress, Autism and Autistic Spectrum Disorders, intellectual difficulties, neurological disorders and communication issues. It is also also an enjoyable and beneficial experience for more vulnerable adults with dementia and Alzheimer;s Disease.

FRT may reduce stress, anxiety, relieve tension, help improve mood, encourage engagement, social interaction and increase receptiveness.  

How can Function Reflex Therapy be delivered?

Firstly through workshop for Parents and Caregivers:

If you have an interest to learn this lovely positive touch routine and you are looking to incorporate relaxation into your lifestyle at home and/or with your family member, the FRT workshop is for you!

 

The Functional Reflex Therapy Rainbow Relaxation Routine is shared through fun, informative, practical workshops led by a qualified FRT Reflexologist in your local area. The workshop which takes place over two sessions, a week apart (2.5 hours each) were you will learn a hand routine one week and a foot routine the next week. You will be asked to practice the routine on each other.   .  

​
These are workshops to train parents and carers in the Rainbow Relaxation routine to use with their own family. This is a short flowing repetitive routine which draws on the original practices of reflexology.
 

Session 1 – covers the hand routine and the benefits of Functional Reflex Therapy

Session 2 – covers the foot routine and how to develop the FRT toolkit and its
importance.

Secondly through one to one Reflexology sessions using the Functional Reflex Framework.
