Electrical energy (also referred to as Qi, Chi, prana, vitality, etc.) forms the foundation of life. It is what drives us; it is what creates life through the electrical spark of conception. The unimpeded circulation of this force is vital — its stagnation leads to death, while its free circulation fosters life.
The reflexes of the feet reflect the levels of Qi. Individuals with high levels typically respond more favourably to treatment than those with lower levels. Recognising these indications will help determine the appropriate type of treatment for each specific client.
However, it is also essential to consider the practitioner's energy state, as this plays a crucial role in enhancing the therapeutic potency of treatments. In this presentation I will discuss strategies that practitioners can employ to elevate their Qi levels.
Maintaining and enhancing their Qi levels will greatly benefit the clients and their health.
I am very fortunate to have Dr. Sumi Chatterjee join me in this presentation.
She is an exceptionally qualified medical doctor and scientist with a degree in Medical Biochemistry and a Master's degree in Pharmacology.
The College of Medicine awarded her a fellowship for her work. She is also a Yoga teacher and is very interested in the body's energy potential and ways to enhance it.
Sumi was diagnosed with advanced cancer in 2021, which changed her view of being a medical doctor.
She decided to use energy medicine to work on her body, mind and spirit to overcome her condition.
The methods she uses will be the subject of her presentation.
Her story is truly inspirational.

'Everything is energy, and that's all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want, and you cannot help but get that reality; it can be no other way. This is not philosophy; this is physics.
- Albert Einstein
'When we consider organic life in the light of biophysics, we find that electrical phenomena are at the root of all cellular life, and we may conclude that the end of everything is an electrical charge'
- Dr. J. Belot
The presentation is scheduled to begin at 3:00 PM (15:00 UK time and will conclude at approximately 5:00 PM (17:00 UK time).
I look forward to meeting you at the presentation (early booking is advised).
My Best wishes

About Tony
- Member of the London and Counties Society of Physiologists (LCSP)
- Began practicing physical therapy and reflexology in 1974
- Studied Ortho-Bionomy with founder Arthur Lincoln Pauls
- After a meeting with the late Dwight Byers nephew of Eunice Ingham, he was invited to work at the International Institute of Reflexology Head office in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Travelled with Dwight and individually giving seminars Internationally for over 20 years.
- Ran the London office of the I.I.R for ten years.
- Maintained a very busy practice in north and central London.
- Realising the importance of applying the appropriate contacts to a reflex he developed a system of techniques known as A.R.T. (Advanced Reflexology Training). This later developed into Focused Reflexology® to better describe the approach.
- The important factor in reflexology is to recognise that a painful reflex does not necessarily indicate a problem to its related area. It is the nature of the reflex texture which is the key. Not being aware of this gives a completely unreliable assessment of the clients reflex status.
The concepts of Focused Reflexology are taught internationally.

Having an interest in the Buddhist and Zen philosophy I have some favourite poems and writings.
This is one of them and it particularly relates to those of us in the health professions.
The human body, at peace with itself
Is more precious than the rarest gem.
Cherish your body, it is yours this one time only.
The human form is won with difficulty, it is easy to lose.
All worldly things are brief,
Like lightening in the sky;
this life you must know
As the tiny splash of a raindrop;
A thing of beauty that disappears
Even as it comes into being,
Therefore set your goal and
Make use of every day and night
To achieve it.
This was written by Tsongkhapa who was a 14th century Tibetan Lama and Buddhist.
