Foot Massage  - Reflexology Using NO HANDS Massage

In Celebration of Feet

Gerry has rewritten the rules of Reflexology with the same revolutionary approach as his other two books have rewritten the rules of Massage and Chair Massage. His writing is like a breath of fresh air in a field mostly dominated by dry academic style writing. His style is that of an inspired but down to earth clinician, generously sharing the lessons of over two decades of Bodywork. More akin to poetry, he opens the book with a powerful poem about the feet – here is an excerpt:

So kick those shoes away
Prison wardens to the feet!

And free your feet

Feel the very soul of this Earth
Pulsating through your body!

And when you need that balm
Which only touch can provide

Then carry your feet to this altar
Where your every tissue’s memory
Is honoured

Beautifully crafted in sumptuous brown ink and lovely thick paper, this book is a delight to touch. It is a book to be savoured over and over again - you will cherish it forever. And like all the very best books, it has lots of pictures.

John Coombes’ amazingly evocative drawings of the feet and the body fill almost every page. These outstanding images are done with a true artist’s eye. Unlike most conventional static photos and images of Bodywork, these drawings capture all the complex vectors of Bodywork movement...

Learn about Gerry’s unique 4-stage treatment protocol for opening up the reflexes and read how Reflexology evolved at precisely the same time in history as our feet became imprisoned in clumsily crafted factory shoes.

Learn a practical model for where the reflexes actually live – and why we should re-evaluate our approach to the feet accordingly. Discover how Gerry applies the Seven Postural Secrets that are unique to NO HANDS to empower the work of the whole Reflexology profession. Understand how the Seven Postural Secrets also will now protect the careers of Reflexologists worldwide from an injury pandemic... Find out how it is that.

"Nine out of ten clients who have experienced this approach say they prefer it to conventional Reflexology"

The author returns again and again to the original writings of Eunice Ingham and honours her as the only true authority regarding Reflexology. Discover why it is that Gerry believes Reflexologists may be in danger of straying from Eunice Ingham’s simple command to “go and stimulate the reflexes” by becoming ‘quasi-medical’ practitioners. He states:

"I firmly believe that if Eunice Ingham were alive today, she would see the enormous therapeutic potential of the Seven Postural Secrets of NO HANDS and embrace their simple power with the same visionary fervour as she embraced the simple logic of her amazing work."

For every page of his writings Gerry Pyves has a comprehensive notes section in which he discusses the relationship between his own ideas and those of Eunice Ingham. Written with a surprising lightness of touch the depth of his clinical expertise and practical wisdom often take you by surprise. Like the visionary inventor of Reflexology, Gerry’s mastery of his own art is often demonstrated through unbelievable simplicity. Some pages bear reading over and over again – each reading revealing greater depths.

This book is not simply for Reflexologists, however. Gerry writes: "This book is suitable for any Bodyworker who would understand more of the feet. That is why Reflexology is not in the title. It is a celebration of the soul’s journey contained within the feet. Non Reflexologists will gain just as much from reading it"

This final book in the trilogy looks set to put what is being hailed as the UK’s "New Massage" firmly on the world map. This trilogy is already a watershed landmark in Bodywork history.
