Two Thousand Happy Feet = New Guiness World Record

On July 1st, 2008 the Taiwan Tourism Bureau reported that 2,000 people, tourists and reflexologists, successfully participated in the largest gathering of foot reflexology to date. Held in Taipei in association with several Taiwan Reflexology Associations the goal was to beat the previous Guinness World Record of 448 people receiving reflexology for five minutes. This group participated in a full 40 minute reflexology session preceded by Qigong demonstrations and a drumming performance. Read the article in the Taipei Times.

Father Josef Eugster, a Catholic priest, has been teaching Taiwanese Reflexology techniques for the past 25 years. Several of our MAR members are certified and trained in this specific style of foot reflexology.

Introduction to Su Jok Therapy

One of our members will be speaking at the Theosophical Society in Boston later this month on Su Jok Therapy, a Korean style of Hand Reflexology.

Introduction to “Su Jok” Reflexology
FRIDAY, JULY 18, 7 TO 8:30 PM upstairs room
with Deyan Vasilev, 857-413-9074,smiledeyanvasilev@yahoo.com
Underpinning the “Onnuri” medicine is the body of principles
common to all philosophy, notably the Homo-Hetero theory,
Triunit theory (Neutro, Hetero and Homo), Six-Origin theory
(Six-Ki theory, emotion and reason theories), Eight-Origins
theory, and M-particle theory. By virtue of the fact that the
word ONNURI intrinsically carries the meaning of what can
be described as the “whole world,” the notion of Onnuri
medicine would involve any number of therapies developed
on the basis of the above mentioned theories. Donation:
$10/$5 TS members. THIS IS AN INTRODUCTION ONLY
TO THIS FORM OF REFLEXOLOGY. Individual
treatments need to be scheduled with the practitioner.
Deyan has attended the New Bulgarian University-Bachelor in
Environmental Protection-and the National Comprehensive
High School “Sofia” Health Prophylaxis with Natural
Remedies.
