CALM Technique is part of the CAREA Matrix and is therefore taught exclusively on the OTHM Level 5 Diploma in Applied Reflexology for Integrated Medicine.
CALM Technique is an extremely gentle application of reflexology which is unique to each client, as it starts from evidence seen and felt in the client’s feet, aiming to rebalance energy throughout the system.
We teach this incredibly gentle technique as part of our training in reflexology for clients who are very unwell, experiencing invasive medical treatments, or who are in palliative care. It’s a very intuitive technique and our students and graduates may also use aspects of this technique within their overall treatment plans where they feel this is appropriate. It is also a great approach to use for clients who are experiencing stress.
I recently asked our academy community of students and graduates which aspects of their training they loved the most – CALM Technique was rated highly, with one graduate saying that
‘It’s nice to work intuitively. It feels like a very natural, healing technique’.
Another said that
‘The clients I’ve been using CALM with are coming to the end of their lives and it is so nice to enable these lovely people to relax and feel pain free for a short while’.
Gentle yet powerful – and such a wonderful reflexology tool to have in your toolbox. Only available to learn on the OTHM Level 5 reflexology diploma!
